Okay, so if the cloud cover clears up some by 7pm we still get plenty of transit. Sun sets at 8:40. (Go team weather.com for having quarter-hour predictions for the next 4 hours. Things should get better, although not perfect, between 6:45 and 7pm.)
It's all about the coat.

So, it starts in a few minutes? Shoul I go outside? Would I see anything, or do I need something? (I'm at UCLA)

Apparently Venus is kind of little, so it's better through a telescope. And of course, don't look directly at the sun. But you can safely view using your phone camera I think.

So, is Venus that teeney tiny little black spot on the lower lefthand edge of the sun?

So the first time he heard me spell it out for someone and say, "That's "v" as in "vampire", his crankyface was EPIC.
I'd imagine that someone in your presence hearing it spelled out that way would never forget, Jilli.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
So voter turnout in Madison, WI today is projected to be 119%
Turnout in excess of 100% is possible because Wisconsin allows same-day voter registration. The numbers suggest that many people are registering at the polls. Heavy turnout in Madison, a liberal stronghold, would likely benefit Democrat Tom Barrett.
Wow.
Of course, Walker is projected to win, but Democrats have a chance if there's high turnout in the state. Milwaukee also has had very high turnout.
