Good Lord! They showed a line of traffic going North into Orygon from the South on the news.
God Bless you hearty souls making your way to the line!
I hope it works out for you travelers, and you can get your eyes and storage cards full of great shots!

I'll be in the 71% belt...

I'm a bit farther north, so it will be a bit more than 71% for me. Actually a bit more than 73%. StarryNight shows me that from Morgan Hill, the max will be at 10:09AM. Be aware that the time will be different for every location. The first nibble taken from the sun will start about 8:59AM. And the moon will give up trying to block the sun at 11:48AM.

Here is a link to give you percent of totality: (Make sure you realize the times given are in UT time)

Yeah...
I was looking at some other maps and realized the Media lied again. Amazing, I know.
Ours said LA LA Land would be at 71%. Not even close!
Mine will be 63.64%. And I'm purdy far North of the news dweebs.
But hey, the coverage should be grand on the TV and Internet.

...You do realize this is ALL a big conspiracy, right?
NASA is going to fly over with a big black dot on an aireoplane and make the Eclipse.
