'Northern Ireland is expected to get some of the best views'

There will be a chance to see a partial solar eclipse later this morning. Experts say the sun will look like it's had "a bite taken out of it".

It is anticipated that parts of Northern Ireland are expected to get some of the best views. Up to 85% of its surface will be blocked by the moon in western Siberia.

"And, certainly don't look through a telescope of a pair of binoculars because that is really bad for your eyes," he added.
