I would definitely love to see it, but I just don't see how the logistics will work. I guess I'll have to wait until 2024 or 2045.

(If you're not in the path of the totality, who cares?)

Anyone seen a national weather map? I sure don't want to drive to anywhere cloudy.

We're about to head out the door.  Our weather isn't looking good for tomorrow though Sad
Go somewhere else. You have plenty of time to drive to Illinois or Kentucky or wherever.

No significant traffic in Kentucky right now. Internet scaremongers wrong?

Just saw it in Nashville.  The weather was very clear, and you really don't get the full experience until you get into the 100% area, which was really cool to see.

Agreed. The haters just saw the partial and didn't know any better.

Theory: traffic wasn't as bad as the internet feared because local media sources conned people into believing the partial eclipse was good enough
