I'll be the guy looking up.
the news said the BEST location is near Hopkinsville KY which is about 30 miles West of my house. The town is building it up and expecting a lot of tourists
Good for duration of totality (2 minutes 40 seconds) but not so good with regards to weather prospects. Check the weather forecast a day or two before and be prepared to travel if necessary.
I stand corrected. Thanks
Not really correcting, just clarifying. Your area is best for duration, the western states are more favorable for lack of clouds.
Solar eclipses aren't exactly rare, but the path of totality is narrow and covers a very small part of earth, while a lunar eclipse can be seen over approximately half the planet. The last total solar eclipse visible in the lower 48 was in 1979. Also, the US is the only country that this eclipse touches. Most people in the US are within a day's drive of the eclipse path.
