It's happening now and for the next 4- 6 hours.

CNN has live video too

Also it looks like CNN is broadcasting live from Mauna Kea - anyone know? I'm sure someone will correct me.

I went to Pu'ukohola to view the transit directly with solar glasses and telescopes. Yes they were broadcasting live from Mauna Kea. Andrew Cooper was narrating. Very cool event, especially after the sun dipped below the high clouds at about 3:30.
