(Whitewater Valley)--Consider it a warmup for the big event next April.  Saturday, the Whitewater Valley will experience a partial solar eclipse.  But don’t get your hopes up.  First, there are clouds in the forecast that will diminish the effect.  More importantly, though, there will only be about 40% coverage.  You many notice a little bit of change in lighting and some colors, but that’s about it.  It will be at around 11:30 and run until 3:30.  Next April’s event will be total and will plunge the Whitewater Valley into total darkness in the middle of the afternoon.
