For the 2045 total eclipse, Florida will be in the path of totality
 
It will take place on Saturday, Aug. 12, 2045.

Put this date on your calendar! And let's hope for clear skies!

When is the next total solar eclipse in the US after 2024 and what is its path? What to know

Did the math, I’ll be 83 - may be around for the next one.

Wow! I'll only be 104. I can hardly wait.

I may still be around, but my eyesight might be not so good.

Hopefully I’ll have good view from nursing home window if I’m lucky :shocked:

Well, that will be my last eclipse.
I go for shorter time span events, like Olympic Games and World Football (Soccer) Cup.
Mind you, the way I feel at the moment, it will soon be sunrises!

Will Scooter still be doing his schtick? But this time on stage with his walker?

Taltarzac725 04-09-2024 09:08 AM

Maybe I will rent my house out.

There'll be a couple of partials next year.

Scooter will be 84 - I expect him still to be with us!

Heck, everybody knows 70 is the new 50! We'll all be around!

By then I'll be on my 5th house in the Villages, a mere cart ride over the I-4 bridge to Magic Kingdom. Of course, there still won't be an executive course south of 75, so I'll probably have to pack a sleeping bag for the cart ride to my 4 pm tee time at Hilltop!

It looks like the glasses are only good for ten years. Depending on the quality though. Probably much less than that for some.

It’s on my calendar! I’ll be a young 92, and hopefully my kids haven’t moved me out of FL by then. 🤞🏻
