I’m in South Central Kentucky. I quick drive to the area around Bowling Green will work.
ok now we know the day of the Lord’s Return, anyone know what hour the eclipse will happen?
Bookmarked..coming right thru our neighborhood! And when it won’t likely be cloudy!

Yes, anywhere within 30 miles of the ocean or Gulf of Mexico can have pop-up thunderstorms in the afternoon..............
Looks like the path is going right over Columbia, South Carolina. Perhaps this calls for a road trip.
I remember reading about this when I moved to Asheville, NC in 2009 and thinking wow that’s a long way off, yet here we are...
Will be making the drive to Greenville
Depends on where you are in the path.
The map directed from this page will tell you to the second: http://www.eclipse2017.org/2017/path_through_the_US.htm
Back in the ‘60’s had a solar eclipse that was to be prime in East Tennessee...Scientists and meteorologists came from all over the country and set up to view around Knoxville....About two hours before it was to happen, it clouded up and we had one h*ll of a rainstorm...
They were all scrambling to get all their stuff moved...It was hilarious...
GSMNP will have a special viewing @ clingmans dome. Area will be closed. Buses running from Gatlinburg and Cherokee if interested.
Same here. Eastern Kansas! I’m spending the day at a wildlife refuge near Atchison though. That’s ground zero - totally total! Can’t wait. I alreasy have the day off
Of course some of us know that it’s not *really* a spheroid moon passing
in front of a spheroid sun as we observe it from our spheroid Earth.
Its just one of the elephants on the turtle’s back taking a short break.
I was going to go to Oregon to watch it but the only place where motels and hotels are available around the coast where you are not guaranteed a clear day, actually very likely have clouds.
I’m close enough I may just drive down for the day watch it and drive back in Central Oregon
Clouds don’t prevent darkness.
Kool. I was in Palm Springs, CA in the 90’s when there was a total eclipse. We were at the community/condo pool and it started getting “dark”. A neighbor had no idea what was happening, so we told her. It dropped 20 degrees during it. Probably from 108 to 88.... It was a once in a lifetime thing to see.
I feel so blessed...am moving to Paducah Kentucky in a month or two and guess what...yup...right in the path!
