BTW - one CNN correspondent was in St. Louis MO where it was raining. She was drenched. Some people left, but just before the full eclipse it stopped raining & the clouds parted & those who stayed got to see it. She was so excited, as much as those who stayed. She was like a kid in a candy shop. It just brought a big smile to my face to see her & the others cheering, clapping, being so excited.
May have to consider going to the one in 2024!
Cheers.
