So excited for you!
Very exciting @Cjp! I was planning to go stay with family in upstate NY to experience it but I just received notification of a corporate audit that week at work and had to cancel my plans. Boo hoo! There are 51 other weeks they could have chosen from, wtf?!
@Just_Laura are you expecting a big turn out at the club? Good money for you I would imagine. I think I read itās expected to be from 3:16pm to 3:29pm in your area.
Actually, the club isnāt doing anything for a couple reasons. Weāre closed on Mondayās, except for private golf tournaments in the summer. The main reason though, is location. The building is on the Niagara escarpment, so thereās a huge drop off from the front of the building. Most of the back patio is shaded by the building from 1pm-5pm. Plus thereās a massive treeline with the tallest trees in the city. The best place to watch would be the parking lot so, not very accessible for a lot of people. Iām good with it. Iāll be watching from my parents backyard, just like we did in 1994
Well at least you have the day off to enjoy it.
The parking lot of our office in South Burlington, Vermont will be a prime location for viewing, full 360Ā° view of the sky and smack in the path of totality.
Hey eclipsians!! Whos getting excited?
Itās going right over my house here in the Texas hill country. Spring is in full bloom with wildflowers. My town has a lake and itās full of campers. Traffic inbound is heavy. Iām hoping the cloudy forecast is wrong!
Iām in the path for totality. Expecting huge amount of people. Clouds in the forecast but who knows on that. Should it happen thereās lots to experience otherwise. It will be lovely either way.
I was also in the path for the October annular. The birds quit chirping etcetera.
We are heading to Paducah, Kentucky tomorrow morning! Iām excited regardless to see my family after our holiday plans fell apart.
Guess what @Cjp !! Iām flying to Texas to see the eclipse!!!
Unfortunately, forecast calls for thunderstorms on Mondayā¦
Canāt catch break
We are an hourāish from the totality line through NB and itās calling for clear skiesā¦ just figuring if I wanna drive over.
They say clouds monday here in southwest tx but atleast we got upgraded to a cabin with a pool!!
I wasnāt trying to get excited about it for the possibility that western NY weather strikes again, but now that I can see the forecast I am. Itās been raining/snowing for days, itās raining right now, but by Monday itās supposed to be 60Ā° and minimally party cloudy. As long as itās clear at 3pm is all that matters. We will see
Iām not quite in the best direct line but I should be able to see it from here! Pretty neat!
Iāve been watching the weather and for a bit there I was worried! But yes it looks good for us, yay!
Iām hoping they do it at night because Iāll be working most of that day.
In the whole state of NY, my cityās in the empty spot! People keep saying how crazy itās gonna be around here but Iāve had my doubts. Unless youāre staying with family, the only reason youād end up here for the eclipse is bc you couldnāt find a hotel in Buffalo or Niagara Falls
