"Cloud Dissipation and Eclipse Forecast for 2024 Solar Eclipse Viewing"

TL;DR Summary
During a solar eclipse, shallow cumulus clouds dissipate due to the moon's shadow blocking sunlight, preventing warm air from rising and forming clouds, with implications for solar geoengineering. The phenomenon was studied using satellite data during eclipses over Africa, revealing the clouds' high sensitivity to eclipse-induced cooling. This has implications for understanding cloud behavior and climate impact, as well as potential consequences for solar geoengineering techniques.
