Looks like all CONUS personnel get to see a solar eclipse. A lot will see a total eclipse. https://www.google.com/imgres?...MKHdxWAJUQ_B0IgQEwDQ http://news.trust.org/item/20170621100154-zx7n3 Update: https://www.timeanddate.com/eclipse/in/usa/yumaThis message has been edited.

I have never seen a total eclipse and this one will be too far to drive to see. There is another in five or six years that will pass just north of me, and I plan to see it. The fish is mute, expressionless. The fish doesn't think because the fish knows everything. | |||

Planning vacation around it. Will be staying in Isle of Palms SC, directly in path of it. Condo is 5 minutes from location with longest total eclipse. If I get my shit together in time and get a ring by then will be asking GF to marry me during or right after eclipse. Yep I'm a space nerd.  Jesse Sic Semper Tyrannis | |||

I'll be able to drive down to see it and drive back in the same day. It sounds like all motels and hotels in the path are pretty close to being booked so I'm glad I don't have to rely on that.

I took off work and will be going to the Smokey Mountains to see it. Hopefully Clingman's Dome or Fontana Dam. But it depends on several things. Shoot, I may take the boat to Fontana and just watch it from out on the water. Here's to the sunny slopes of long ago. | |||

Nashville is right in the path. I'm looking forward to it! | |||

It will pass through the (almost) center of Wyoming. Expecting LOTS of people for the 2 minute 30 second viewing. PC | |||

Needs a bigger boat |
I'm going to stay with friends on Lake Lanier in N GA that weekend, then plan to drive to wherever it looks like the weather will cooperate the best, Summer in the SE usually has a fair number of clouds built up by early afternoon. MOO means NO! Be the comet! | |||

I look to be at about .9 magnitude or a bit better. Good enough! Looking forward to it. | |||

I'll use the Red Key |
Supposedly thousand of people are coming to Idaho for it, hotel rooms in the path skyrocketing. Donald Trump is not a politician, he is a leader, politicians are a dime a dozen, leaders are priceless. | |||

If you plan to look at a solar eclipse, make sure you have appropriate eye protection unless you want an image of it permanently burned onto your retinas. Plain sunglasses are not adequate. I sent these to my family in middle TN and ordered some for us. There's probably gonna be an upturn in eye doc's business starting on 22 August!

| Go ahead punk, make my day |
Not too far away, we are planning to attempt to see it from the Nashville area. | |||

Solar Eclipse day craziness could resemble the zombie apocalypse — Are you ready? Glad I got an ocean front balcony at the place we rented. May skip the beach for viewing. Jesse Sic Semper Tyrannis | |||

1 minute 8 seconds of total eclipse at my house. I'll take it and stay off the roads. ETA: Already got my eclipse safe viewing glasses in hand. | |||
