Yes. But the danger is not knowing when the photosphere of the sun
peeks out from behing the moon at the end of totality. I plan to set a
timer to fire 10 second before the end of totality to give me time to
look away.

I've captured USNO eclipse timings for all clear sky charts on the
eclipse path. Look in the "nifty links" section of a clear sky chart's
web page.

The current CMC cloud forecast of the eclipse hour shows much of
Ontario's weather will be dogdy:

So, I will be deciding where to go just a few hours before the eclipse
based on satellite imagry of clouds (Non of this silly forecast ==
guessing stuff.)

(which, btw is linked from each clear sky chart in the "Near-Realtime
Satellite Imagry of Clouds" link in "nifty links")

No amimation controls, though.
