A unique sight
Your moments from the solar eclipse

A spectacle in the sky, captured by you with us!

The first total solar eclipse over mainland Europe since 1999 has officially passed, with over 90% coverage from a partial eclipse over the UK and Ireland. Offering a chance to snap a unique weather moment.

The image shows an intense tropical cyclone over the western Pacific, east of Taiwan and the Philippines. The centre of the system is depicted as a light purple and white vortex with a clearly visible eye, surrounded by a ring of red and orange areas indicating the strongest wind speeds. A white arrow marks the typhoon’s predicted track towards the north-west, in the direction of Taiwan. To the west of the storm lie the Philippines, with the cities of Manila and Cebu; to the north of these lies Taiwan, with Taipei. Further west, the Chinese coast, including Hong Kong, and parts of Vietnam can be seen.
