Thanks for posting; I just asked my wife what day it was gonna happen. Your link says it will be a 91.8% eclipse at my house. I can't see driving hundreds of miles to see 100%, but then most people think I'm crazy for driving thousands of miles to turkey hunt.

Without traveling to a 100% area to see what a total eclipse looks like, get up at midnight on a moonless night and look outside.
