o safely view the eclipse, Speck advises the use of protective glasses that are certified with the ISO 12312-2 designation. Homemade pinhole projectors are also effective for experiencing the eclipse.
This eclipse won’t be the last to cross through the state. Just 177 days later, a total solar eclipse—where the sun is completely blocked by the moon—will take place on April 8, 2024.

Awesome.
Remember people, do NOT stare into an eclipse. You can do serious damage to your retinas if you do. /not medical advice, just a fact

Hopefully, the cloud cover won’t obscure it.

Don’t know how Preparation H never picked that up as a theme song.

Here in Maine we’ll see a 13% bite taken out of the sun. I’m waiting for April 8’s total eclipse.

I can’t see if the path goes closer to Kerrville (I-10) or Fredericksburg (Hwy 290) or somewhere between them.

Kerrville? Fredericksburg? San Antonio?

Thanks, TB! We’re going to watch from a nearby park. Only a partial here, but we’ll get the total eclipse in April.
