Looks like there's an annular eclipse visible across a good chunk of northern California in May 2012, so San Francisco ought to have a decent view of that one. And a total eclipse over Oregon in August 2017.
In 2106 there's a total eclipse pretty much right over San Francisco or perhaps San Jose (I'm not 100% sure of the geography of California).

Is that soon enough?
I'm just hoping for one close enough to North America to make it feasible to travel to. I'm in the Eastern US and like you it seems like we never get them. It looks like the 2017 one is the one I should aim for.

Q&A: Will the barometric pressure change during the solar eclipse tonight?
Question by ????: Will the barometric pressure change during the solar eclipse tonight?
I am pregnant and I've heard that barometric pressure changes can cause women to have their water break...When does barometric pressure change, other than during snow storms? Will the barometric pressure change during the solar eclipse tonight?
Thank you in advance for educated answers.
:O)
THANK YOU!

Answer by SilentBarometric pressure changes constantly with the weather. This is what meteorologists are referring to when they say, for example, that a low pressure front is moving in on your city.
A solar eclipse will not have any significant effect on atmospheric pressure.

The solar eclipse that will come on May 20th 2012 has alot of spiritual significance. This video is to warn of whats coming. Hearken unto the voice of YAHUVEH Almighty spoken through Prophet Elisabeth Elijah. There is a salvation prayer at the end of this video, please say this prayer if you want to accept YAHUSHUA / Jesus as your Lord & Saviour. Excerpt from Prophecy 36 "I Am Not Only Your God Of Yesterday, Today, But Tomorrow, Even In The Darkest Hour" Spoken under the anointing of the RUACH ha KODESH through Apostle Elisabeth Sherrie Elijah. August 10, 1999 "The Darkness that is about to descend on various parts of the earth will unleash demons in all directions. The eclipse that is coming in the sky also is a sign that evil battles the good. Satan, YAHUSHUA and MY angels are battling and I have placed that sign in the sky. There is a foreboding in the spiritual realm even those that do not acknowledge ME as Almighty God and bow to other foreign gods know that this eclipse is like none other. Satan will place in man's mind the idea to conquer and to rob, steal, destroy in a greater magnitude. Satan will unleash the spirit of war on MY Children to a greater degree. You have been warned. Say not that "I AM" did not warn you. Fear not, just call upon ME and I shall deliver you by MY ALMIGHTY HAND! But I shall only protect those that are covered in MY Son's shed Blood. There is only one remission for sin, one Blood that is Holy and pure that can wash the stench of sin away ...

Answer by RickBThat information is lost in pre-history. Nearly anybody who observed the motions of the sun and moon would have been able to tell that a solar eclipse is caused by the moon moving in front of the sun; and that a lunar eclipse is caused by moon moving into the earth's shadow. So there's no way to tell who would have been the FIRST person to do that, since it was common knowledge to anybody who was a careful observer.
It is known that the Chinese not only knew what an eclipse is, but were actually predicting them, as long ago as 2300 BC.
