There will be a total solar eclipse down visible from South America.  Totality will run from 4:38 to 4:44 PM EDT.  GOES-16 once again will be viewing this eclipse, and should look similar to the loop below we saved from the 2017 eclipse that ran across the U.S. August 21, 2017.

You can view the way GOES-16 sees this eclipse by using the following weblink, http://rammb-slider.cira.colostate.edu/.

Also, on that webpage, if you change the option for Sector to Mesoscale2, you will get a closer up look to Chile, with minute by minute imagery as the eclipse crosses South America.
