Anyone have the time that the eclipse will happen in TV?

There are a number of websites out there. Here is one, plug in your zip code. The short answer is 2:49 PM for the peak.

Also, we are in 80% coverage area as I recall, and unless you get a set of ISO rated glasses, PLEASE do NOT look at the eclipse.

NC & SC hotels are all booked--hope it doesn't rain or have heavy cloud cover-IMHO its akin to watching grass grow

Glad for this post - I thought this solar eclipse was going to happen at night.

Yep, 2045 total eclipse.

[biker1]

Will that be visible from the underside of the grass?

I live in suburban Chicago which will get 86% of the sun blocked. Carbondale, IL, 350 miles south of me, is in the path of the total eclipse. Amtrak is running a special train from Chicago to Carbondale early the morning of the eclipse. Tickets sold out in less than one day.

The Amtrak Eclipse Express departs at 3 a.m. Aug. 21 from Chicago Union Station; the Champaign departure is 5:05 a.m. It will arrive in Carbondale at 8:30 a.m., giving travelers a chance to catch the eclipse in the afternoon, and will leave the station at 5:15 p.m.

Each customer will receive free ISO-certified eclipse viewing glasses, courtesy of Amtrak and Carbondale Tourism.

All aboard!

I hope they have a lot of them.

My employer is giving out free eclipse glasses to any employee who wants them. I will probably stay at my desk and keep working. I just want to see how dark it gets since Chicago will only experience a partial eclipse. The cities and towns located in the full eclipse path are really making $$ from this.

I am looking forward to the real-time coverage on the Science channel, starting at NOON.
