I am in the totality zone near Cleveland, so I can’t avoid it.

Interesting that local media is now warning people to stock up on groceries and fill gas tanks in advance of the eclipse.

What do they expect to happen? What do they know?

Nothing disastrous will happened. It is a great nature phenomenon, they should encourage people to watch.
But they are idiots and disasters sell!

Places in the path of totality get overrun by those chasing the total eclipse. Better to not be caught unaware when your town is wall-to-wall traffic jams from the lookie-loos.

I suspect that there will be a large regional influx of people that drove there and will be gassing up before driving out, and will be eating while they are there.
