Good on you for persisting to find a place to view the eclipse!
The weather will truly be a problem for viewing here as geo-engineering has caused us to have ten days to two weeks of rain and T-storms, then a two or three day break of gorgeous weather, as we’ve had the past few days, and now the ten day forecast is for T-storms every day. I sure hope we don’t miss viewing this event. Our little town is expecting 10,000 folks to show up, you won’t catch me anywhere near town for a few days before and a few days after.
