Cool! August 2017 from Missouri was my first and I got hooked! Like you, it’s in my backyard in Fort Worth but I’m not happy with 2 min 10 seconds. Going closer to the centerline in Dallas, Ennis, or Waxahachie.
make that money bro! Stock up on the cardboard eclipse glasses now while they are still available, then walk around at the viewing party selling them to people in the hours leading up to the eclipse. I saw one guy say he made $5000 dollars in 8 hours of selling glasses. He said he started at 10 dollars, and every hour close he went up 10 more dollars in price. He was flipping glasses he paid .50 cents for 60+ bucks per pair.
1:49 We were just outside of Doniphan MO. That was the most amazing thing I’ve seen in my entire life and I’m 50 years old. I’d pay just about any sum of money to see that again. I feel bad for anyone who missed it
Congrats mate. I drove 700 miles on the day to Rochester but it was cloudy asf. Too bad we couldn’t see the Sun, but at least seeing the shadow of the Moon gliding over is really cool
There are some theories out there about what may happen in the area of that X, where both eclipses crossed. Having to do with the New Madrid fault line.
Suggestions? I’ll be driving from southern Illinois back to St. Louis later that day. Should I just hang out in the area for two hours to let traffic thin?
@@DugrozReports not really any good suggestions. If I had it to do over again, I would have gotten a hotel or a campsite way in advance and just drove back the next day. We literally moved less than 60 miles in the first 3 hours.

Great visual of the moon’s shadow moving across the earth! After watching the August 2017 total solar eclipse from Missouri, I’m so happy the 2024 event is in my own backyard here in Texas. However, I only get 2 min 10 seconds of totality, so going to relatives’ houses to watch near the centerline (they’re in Kerrville and Center Point). 😎☀️🌑☀️

We're definitely anticipating crowds here in northeastern Ohio, getting very close to 4 minutes of totality. For those who have never experienced a total solar eclipse, I'll just say there's absolutely nothing like it.
@@user-lw1pm8qi1h Dusk isn't the same: - You don't get a circular rainbow around the sun as dusk approaches. - You don't have light on the horizon in all directions during dusk. - You don't have several minutes where the sun is a ring of fire. Really, it's wildly different. I hope you got to see it.
I live in a small town in northern New Hampshire right in the path of totality. I feel blessed that I get to experience this. I saw a partial eclipse (about 85%) in 2017 vacationing at Virginia Beach, which was super awesome (at least I thought so, I've been told I'm way too easily impressed sometimes), so this will be even better. The only downside is I work at a hotel/lodge and there are going to be a lot of guests and it'll be stressful, I may have to deal with irate/angry guests. Despite that, I'm super looking forward to seeing an eclipse in person.
@@robertdimartino5794 I'm hoping for a clear sky that day. If it's cloudy and you're staying at where I work, you're going to see a sad-looking woman at the front desk with fogged up sunglasses (from crying), I'll be really upset if yet another astronomical event gets rained out.
@@nickolasyurko4858 i hope you travel to somewhere near the centerline to see it. you will be amazed, i promise. it may actually change your mind about the heavens. regardless.....listen for the birds and the insects doing their normal 'bedtime' routine as totality becomes immanent. feel the temperature drop and the earth become still during totality. enjoy the 360 degree sunset all around you. then tell me later you weren't impressed.
It's coming right to me and I pray the sky will be clear that day. Thank you for posting this very informative video. Very interesting to know that the speed of the moon's shadow increases as it heads more north, so the totality becomes less. So it's best to be in Mexico for this one.
I’m on the FW/Arlington boarder and kind of wished I’d had gone closer to the center of the path. Still, watching it from the comfort of my own back yard with all the booze and my own restroom was the best ever! Such a surreal experience that I’ll never forget if I don’t happen to catch another. Hopefully my Wife, kids (who knows maybe even some grand kids too) and I will be around in 2045 for the OKC one. Definitely going to try and catch that one God willing!
I'm flying in from Europe and will be heading for Texas to experience this eclipse. The previous totality was ruined by rain back in 1998. Really exited about the eclipse
I'm from Hendricks County Indiana and we are due for a 3-minute 30-second totality.. if I drive about an hour south, I will pick up about 37 seconds of totality. I think I'm going to go ahead and stay home.
@@chelsearunyan yes, Bburg will be there, although the farther south you can go, the better. I will be in Avon that monday, so I'm going to get a pretty good slice. If you can make it to the South side, you will get a better view, although your only picking up a few seconds
FINALLY!! i was driving in 2017 for the eclipse i dont think i was in totality area but it was sure cool to see. now its cross my home city mid day! going to be awesome!
In 1027, a group of 145(!) of us were in the small city of Cross Plains, TN, just north of Nashville, just for the eclipse event. It was perfect for watching the eclipse at 100% totality. Next year, in April, some of us are planning to go to Indianapolis. Can't wait!!!
The 2017 event was beautiful here in Indianapolis...really looking forward to April. hope you have plans made..we are a big convention city, lots of hotels..but this has probably been on the books for a while here...Have the best visit..be safe and well.
the 2017 eclipse the closest hotel I could book was with 99% coverage. Had no problem driving to the center of totality in the morning and I didn't even get up that early. The hard part was when everyone left at once. I couldn't leave Tennesse! Damn bridges are choak points in traffic.
I live in the DFW, and I'm stoked that the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity is coming! The only time the total eclipse reaches my area! :D Seen in 1:13 of the video. Where I live, the eclipse will last for like 2.5 minutes. Most epic moment of my life not involving food or vacation is coming.
Can you check this 7 towns with the name ninavah are in the path in North America. Also this event takes place the day after Divine Mercy Sunday. Thanks.
I'm planning on being on top of Enchanted Rock which is almost dead center. I read San Antonio is expecting over a million people traveling there just for the eclipse. That sounds hard to believe. If so, the Hill Country is going to be jam packed. It might be standing room only on top of Enchanted Rock!
Enchanted rock's parking lot isn't very big and they limit entry. I'm not sure if they expanded the capacity for this event but enchanted rock would be a great place for it if you have a reservation
my backyard, 15 min southwest of Indianapolis...caint wait.. Indy will probably have a huge crowd also, they will probably open the track. ..we get that from time to time🏁...
Those of us in Southern Illinois are dead center again. Just like 2017. I can't believe the odds. I live in Herrin, IL. 62948 The crowds will be crazy.
It's all or nothing. 99.9% is simply a partial eclipse and you'll miss all the things that totality brings. You won't be able to look at the sun without eye protection. Even being in the center of the path doesn't mean a thing if it's really cloudy. The path of totality only offers about a 40% chance of clear skies in the U.S at this time of year. Mazatlan, Mexico gives you a 75% chance of blue skies. The further North you go, the worse it gets. Texas is a pretty good bet, but it's still weather dependent. Know how to read weather maps and be ready to drive.
I might make it to Uvalde Tx this map shows much of eclipse being there dead center for a good long time of four minutes lol 😂 . There are several places I could go including Boerne , Kerrville or Fredericksburg Tx
nova Scotia won't see totality. Only the tippy north part of it will, unfortunately. Major cities like Halifax and Sydney will miss out, so I highly suggest traveling to New Brunswick instead!! Totality will cut right through there, and the experience under the shadow will be so much different!
I live in Cleburne TX totality 1:40-1:43 unfortunately it’s supposed to also be severe weather tornados hail the whole spectrum after the eclipse hoping to see it but it might be cloudy. Yes a total Solar Eclipse can enhance severe Weather in certain conditions
Pick your place carefully. Leave options for sudden relocation. Sudden temp change of shadow can create pop up thunderstorms that can quickly ruin the event if you can't move quickly.
I’ve seen two eclipses in my life one when I was in kindergarten one in 2017 neither was a total eclipse this one will go right over my house in NE Ohio
Between waiting on iffy spring weather forecasts and the traffic situation to the rural area of New England, I'm not sure what to do at this point. I'm sure campsites and hotels will all be full no matter what, and doing a 3-5 hour drive inland is a tough ask.
Im sorry, but that is not good enough. The reason people get so excited is because of the totality portion. Everything amazing happens in that strip. Even if there are no crowds, going to totality, especially if your that close makes so much of a difference. Your life will change if you see it 100% covered. Trust me! Take the hour drive or so, it's so worth it.
97% looks good on paper, but I think there's a good-enough difference to make a decent trip and see it whole. Maybe pick a state park to visit too. {next time, maybe}
For those that live in the Dallas area as I’ve never been to Texas before? Is it usually sunny there in early April/ what is the weather like that time of year?
Who is here after the eclipse actually happened in April 2024?

Can you check this 7 towns with the name ninavah are in the path in North America.
Also this event takes place the day after Divine Mercy Sunday. Thanks.
I'm planning on being on top of Enchanted Rock which is almost dead center. I read San Antonio is expecting over a million people traveling there just for the eclipse. That sounds hard to believe. If so, the Hill Country is going to be jam packed. It might be standing room only on top of Enchanted Rock!
Enchanted rock's parking lot isn't very big and they limit entry. I'm not sure if they expanded the capacity for this event but enchanted rock would be a great place for it if you have a reservation
my backyard, 15 min southwest of Indianapolis...caint wait.. Indy will probably have a huge crowd also, they will probably open the track. ..we get that from time to time🏁...
That’s where I plan on being. Flying from Florida
Those of us in Southern Illinois are dead center again. Just like 2017. I can't believe the odds.
I live in Herrin, IL. 62948
The crowds will be crazy.
It’s not coincidence
wow, this eclipse, you are literally on the centerline.
My grandpa K lives where it’ll be a full eclipse! Where visiting him to see it! I’m so excited
It misses my hometown by a few miles. Imma have to take a bicycle ride that day.
Don't let Imma go by herself. 😂
Awesome simulation. I’ll be in Arizona so won’t get near totality. But the view should still be cool.
It's all or nothing. 99.9% is simply a partial eclipse and you'll miss all the things that totality brings. You won't be able to look at the sun without eye protection. Even being in the center of the path doesn't mean a thing if it's really cloudy. The path of totality only offers about a 40% chance of clear skies in the U.S at this time of year. Mazatlan, Mexico gives you a 75% chance of blue skies. The further North you go, the worse it gets. Texas is a pretty good bet, but it's still weather dependent. Know how to read weather maps and be ready to drive.
Aeraging Mach 3 speed..took around 6 hours crossing North American continent. AMAZING!
Add the time zone changes
Wicked awesome!😊
exactly what i was looking for
Almost Home Church! Netchatef!👋😊❤❤❤
Nice visualization
Less than a month away now. Watching from Lake Ouachita. 👍🇺🇸
Can’t believe I live in the moons shadows path. This will be sick
Why will it be sick? Is it because anybody who isn't careful will go blind because of the eclipse?
Indianapolis. I've been waiting for this eclipse since I was a teenager. I'm 58 now😋.
wow.
Ill be on the shores of lake erie in my home state Ohio
Last one in America for 20 years. Won't see a total somar eclipse again until 2044 in Montana.
Pray 🙏
Overrated.....never works never will. Stop believing in something fake. Worthless.
I had a front row seat in Cleveland OH
A group of us will be in TX at Chalk Bluff in Uvalde - we have cabins by the river in totality!
Can I see it from South of Tulsa at all?
I might make it to Uvalde Tx this map shows much of eclipse being there dead center for a good long time of four minutes lol 😂 . There are several places I could go including Boerne , Kerrville or Fredericksburg Tx
Looking for my place
I'm already excited 🎉
Once we transition, we'll see better wonders of the universe. Enjoy the eclipse in Nova Scotia in case your flying out there.
nova Scotia won't see totality. Only the tippy north part of it will, unfortunately. Major cities like Halifax and Sydney will miss out, so I highly suggest traveling to New Brunswick instead!! Totality will cut right through there, and the experience under the shadow will be so much different!
You forgot that the eclipse first touched land in the Revillagigedo islands in Mexico, it was not in the Sinaloa region
in Wenonah IL now, at Freedom Indiana during eclipse...right in the Center
It seems like the west coast is the place to see it! Although I'm glad I only have to drive 2 hours this time around.
Abrupt ending. Time wise, it looks like Mexico and Texas are the best places.
I live right in the center of the totality shadow in Western NY. Cloudy or not it will be a great experience
ITS HAPPENING RIGHT NOW IN TEXAS
I live in Cleburne TX totality 1:40-1:43 unfortunately it’s supposed to also be severe weather tornados hail the whole spectrum after the eclipse hoping to see it but it might be cloudy. Yes a total Solar Eclipse can enhance severe Weather in certain conditions
Vamos a recibirlo en Las Labradas🌊🤠🧑🚀🖖🏼
Creston, Ohio ready - pray for no clouds.
Light, wispy high altitude cirrus clouds should dissipate as totality develops.
Lucky to have moved to Hamilton, Ohio when I did, it's already getting nuts here and in neighboring Oxford.
Pick your place carefully. Leave options for sudden relocation. Sudden temp change of shadow can create pop up thunderstorms that can quickly ruin the event if you can't move quickly.
I’ve seen two eclipses in my life one when I was in kindergarten one in 2017 neither was a total eclipse this one will go right over my house in NE Ohio
Prepare to have your mind blown away. It's hypnotic and induces euphoria.
Total cosmic bliss
@@SUGAR_XYLER I can’t wait I took a vacation day for it as soon as my vacation became available. I’ll drive to clear sky’s if I need.
Waiting for it in my hometown Mazatlan MX the first point in main land to get the path.
Between waiting on iffy spring weather forecasts and the traffic situation to the rural area of New England, I'm not sure what to do at this point. I'm sure campsites and hotels will all be full no matter what, and doing a 3-5 hour drive inland is a tough ask.
A three hour drive to witness one of the defining moments of your life seems a small price to pay.
I'll get 97% here in Grand Rapids Mi, good enough for me + no crowds!
Im sorry, but that is not good enough. The reason people get so excited is because of the totality portion. Everything amazing happens in that strip. Even if there are no crowds, going to totality, especially if your that close makes so much of a difference. Your life will change if you see it 100% covered. Trust me! Take the hour drive or so, it's so worth it.
97% looks good on paper, but I think there's a good-enough difference to make a decent trip and see it whole. Maybe pick a state park to visit too.
{next time, maybe}
Anybody else notice the speed increase as it moved northeast?
For those that live in the Dallas area as I’ve never been to Texas before? Is it usually sunny there in early April/ what is the weather like that time of year?
Usually sunny but there's always the chance of a thunderstorm in April
..its going right over my town in Missouri....:D
amazing
I’d give anything, even my heart, to see a solar eclipse in Mexico someday…
How mush you want por the heart? $$?
What is the difference between the time and duration of the totality?
