Someone needs to start an eclipse thread. Where do you plan to be?
Right here! I live in metro east saint Louis. We are right in the path!
Ground Zero here: Central Oregon Coast. It’s already crazy town here. Authorities are predicting loss of cell phone capability, internet, etc. Traffic through the coastal area is along Highway 101 - it’s already a nightmare due to heat wave inland (Salem, Portland, etc.).
I’m in Cape Girardeau, MO. We get over two minutes of totality. And as a bonus another one in 2024!
South Carolina just north of Charleston (Monks Corner area).
As for this Boston Globe observation, the idiocy of it is strong and leads one to wonder if the rest of their 'news coverage' equals it in intellectual value!
