Annular Solar Eclipse of 2005 October 03

"On Monday, October 03, an annular1 eclipse of the Sun will be visible from within a narrow corridor which traverses the Iberian Peninsula and stretches across the African continent. A partial eclipse will be seen within the much broader path of the Moon's penumbral shadow, which includes Europe, western Asia, the Middle East, India and most of Africa."

See: http://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse/SEmo...05/ASE2005.html and http://sunearth.gsfc.nasa.gov/eclipse/SEmo...SE2005map3b.GIF

I live near Madrid (Spain) and won't miss this event.
If I'm able to take some photos of the eclipse I'll post them here.

"Any comments/experience on dissoving cloud cover during totality ?"

If the clouds are being created by convection, then they will tend to dissipate as the heat from the sun is blocked.

Unfortunately (and it seems commonly in the UK) this had no effect.
