Glasses were cool. Had 97% coverage. Would not have driven 3-5 hours to see 100%.

Many major cities will be in the path of the 2024 total solar eclipse, including Dallas; Little Rock, Arkansas; Indianapolis; Cleveland; Buffalo, New York; and Montreal.
Similar to this week’s eclipse, much of the rest of North America will experience a partial solar eclipse on April 8, 2024, with the exception of Alaska and far northwestern Canada.
Some areas in 2017's total solar eclipse path of totality will once again experience a total solar eclipse in 2024, including Carbondale, Illinois; Cape Girardeau, Missouri; and Paducah, Kentucky.

While the next total solar eclipse in the U.S. will not occur until 2024, it will be preceded by an annular solar eclipse just a few months prior.
During an annular solar eclipse, the moon is farther away from the Earth, so it is not quite large enough to block out all of the light from the sun. Because of this, this type of eclipse has been given the nickname of the ‘Ring of Fire’ eclipse.
This Ring of Fire eclipse will occur on Oct. 14, 2023, and will be visible from California to Texas and across portions of Central America and South America.


On Aug. 12, 2045, the shadow of the moon will once again track across the United States, this time from Northern California to Florida.
Some may argue that this eclipse will be more impressive than 2017’s as the moon will completely block out the sun for over 6 minutes, more than twice as long as this week’s eclipse.
This will also be the longest total solar eclipse experienced anywhere in the world until 2114.

3 of the most popular destinations got burned with cloud cover. St Joseph, Mo which was dealing rain and clouds, Carbondale, Ill also had thick clouds and Nashville, Tenn. Apparently Nashville didn't get burned. The way they were talking on ABC they were implying cloud cover. The other two cities got a few seconds at best of totality because of thick clouds.
