    I am in the path of totality, super excited.

    My dad is coming into town to view it with my family. We've bought a pack of the eclipse glasses and a sheet of the same filter material to tape over some camera rigs we are messing with.

    Charleston is expecting over a million tourists to visit.

    Our schools aren't having school the day of the eclipse because they figure it will be crazy around here.

    Quoted from Luckydogg420:

    Our schools will still be on Summer vacation

    It's technically the last day of summer vacation for ours as well. They were originally slated to start back on the 21st, the day of the eclipse, then the school board decided to delay it a day for the eclipse.

    The time of the eclipse here would be the time elementary and middle school busses are running their afternoon routes, what a disaster that would be.

    They are already overplaying this commercial by the state highway patrol pleading with people to not wear eclipse glasses while driving and to not stop on the interstate to watch.

    Quoted from blondetall:

    People are SO MAD that they have to now figure out what to do with their kids.

    I could see that, lots of parents both work and can't just take time off whenever.

    Our plan is to not leave the house that day, there is going to be a whole lot of crazy going on.

    Can you imagine what a total eclipse was like 500 years ago? People must have gone nuts.

    Quoted from taylor34:

    I must be the only person who doesn't care about this, and I even live in the path. It's just the moon going in front of the sun, I know it doesn't happen very often, but the way people were acting you'd think that there was a plane dropping billions of dollars in this line across the US, lol.

    It's just a bunch of people having some fun. Something I think we could use right now.

    Traffic here in Charleston was fine, it never got jammed up.
