(CNN)A total solar eclipse stretched across South America on Tuesday at the exact same time a Category 4 hurricane was developing near the southern tip of the Baja California peninsula, and it was caught on the same satellite loop.
“Not too often you catch a Category 4 hurricane and a solar eclipse occurring in the same satellite loop,” the National Weather Service tweeted with a clip of video.
The National Hurricane Center issued an advisory on Hurricane Barbara, which is more than 1,000 miles southwest of the southern tip of Baja California.
