Are you going to watch the total solar eclipse? - April 8th, 2024

[Takes_Two_To_Tango]

I don't have those special glasses and they say you can use your camera on your phone to look straight at it. Though I'm not completely positive about that.

Therefore, I'm not risking getting blind, so I'm going to pass. Although, it's going to be cool to see at midday that rather it being sunny it's completely dark.

So that's surreal.

I'm sure there will be a great quality recording of it on YT.

@rj144 you watching?

 

[aunshi189]

I'm in the UK

 

[My name is]

I don't really care about it

 

[Natural Order]

Yes, as close as it's going to get in my lifetime I believe. Pretty incredible phenomenon worth checking out.

Looking forward to it, looking like sunny clear weather here in Nova Scotia for it too.

 

[Thrawn33]

It's going to cause me to pause my human sacrifices and allow the main character to escape...

 

[badascan]

I'll be in Cleveland (not by choice) so I'll have a perfect view... Will be present for it...

 

[AFanNotAFighter]

Yes. I live in the total coverage zone in NY State on Lake Ontario although the weather report predicts some cloud cover. Got the glasses(5 pack) the other day.

 

[Get To Da Choppa]

I live in Dallas so theoretically I should have a great view. However the forecast for tomorrow calls for overcast and rain. Hopefully that comes after the totality of the eclipse

It would suck for the hundreds of thousands of people that have come to Texas for the eclipse only to be rained out. Hotels under the path of the eclipse are charging over $1000 a night for some crappy room

 

[Pliny Pete]

I'd like to but I dont have those glasses plus Im not sure if its even gonna be in the Bay Area, I heard they sell the glasses at the Home Depot, maybe I'll stop by this afternoon on my way to the movie theater
Will update later

 

[koquerelle]

I will. I wasn't going to, but my sister bought me glasses.

 

[Joshuaace]

No plans and I live jogging distance from the path.

 

[Beechwood]

I'm not sure if there will be much to see here in Florida. Probably not, so don't imagine I'll see much.

Hey, just a heads-up! When there's a total solar eclipse happening, tons of folks flock to spots where they can see it in all its glory. This can mean major traffic jams, packed viewing spots, and maybe even some safety concerns.

If you're thinking of catching the eclipse live, it's smart to plan in advance, get to your chosen spot early, and be ready for some crowds and maybe not a lot of facilities around.

Be safe, Sherfriends!

 

[HUNTERMANIA]

Probably not, I'm in Florida, IDK how good the viewing is here. I normally don't miss any eclipes/meteors and stuff bc I live on the beach so there's always a great view but I think it's not gonna be that great here.

 

[BFoe]

No, I haven’t planned to. I haven’t even looked to see how visible it is from where I live.

 

[TrueBias]

If I need any sort of gear to see it, then we can skip it.

 

[Quadtavius Tuck]

It gets dark every night, why the fuck would I watch this lol

 

[Fox by the Sea]

Don't forget to stare directly at it
