Hope everyone realizes this eclipse, whether total or partial, is going to be visible from most of the US. For example, here in New York City it will begin at about 1:30pm, with peak occurring around 2:45 pm.

Meanwhile, the center of the moon’s shadow will be somewhere in Georgia at approximately that time (2:45pm ET). I imagine locations well south of that will also see a partial.

So, if you haven’t already, check with your local news outlets for the schedule where you are. I think they can be trusted on this one. :)

Partials are interesting but you have to be in the totality zone to really appreciate the celestial phenomenon. The difference is like night and day. If anyone asks me I always say it is well worth the trip to see totality.

I live in CT and the partial has just started at 1:45PM EDT. Sitting on the front porch.
