Why is the total solar eclipse cloudy, and it's not dark until you see the sun?

It will get dark every day when it rains. Within a few minutes of a total solar eclipse, the sky will suddenly turn black no matter what the weather is like. The only difference is that you can see the stars in the sky on a clear day, not when it is raining or cloudy. So rainy days do not affect the influence of darkness.

Extended data:

1. A total solar eclipse refers to an eclipse in which the light of the sun is completely blocked by a part of the moon on the earth. Total solar eclipse can be divided into five stages: initial loss, solar eclipse, partial solar eclipse, illumination and recovery. Because the moon is smaller than the earth, only people in the umbra of the moon can see the total solar eclipse. Folk call this phenomenon "Tiangou Food Day".
