    You should have researched where to park, 15 miles can make a lot of difference

    That is the last coast to coast total eclipse. 1979 was total for parts of the US. There will be another like 1979 in 2024 I believe.

    Well, I wasn't able to get to totality. Kicking back in OKC waiting for a dispatch. It's getting darker. I made a pinhole in a sheet of cardboard, and this is the eclipse.

    The MyRadar app shows the path of totality and current area of totality.
