P.S. There’s hope. When this column was posted online, Mark McKinzie commented,
noting that Rochester will be in the path of totality of a total solar eclipse on April 8, 2024.

At 3:21:51 p.m., 100 percent of the sun will be obscured.

I should consider getting eclipse glasses ... will order next Tuesday.

It's on a Monday. Again...

You're a bit North for this one, it cuts right through South Carolina. But is should be "close" to totality for you. That little bit, though, makes a big difference in light levels (the sun is REALLY bright).

For those interested, there's an app that shows you, for your location, what it will look like and WHAT TIME it will happen. The times are important to plan for. Your time for near-totality and my time are many minutes different, for example.

Bones posted a link to the app here in the cool science thread:

^^ Worth checking out for anyone that is interested in the eclipse at all, if they're in the continental USA.
