March 9th: Regulus to be occulted briefly ?

Interesting possibility mentioned on the BAA website here

If the initial chart is correct I'm pretty much bang on the centre line. On the update though, the line has shifted south by 25 miles or so so I'm right on the northern edge.

Probably worth a look anyway, if it is clear.

Very interesting. I have never given thought that such an event would occur. Thanks Jeremy for posting. I guess that an 80 mm telescope at  low magnification would show this
