Yeah I never once looked at going far away for this... It was always gonna be somewhere I could do in a day
I think around Russellville Arkansas is looking pretty good and ideally I can stay close to the interstate so I can get out of there quick

I'm still planning to be somewhere between Fort Smith and Little Rock probably. Leaving first thing in the morning. I heard Russellville has scientists from NASA and France apparently 
I'm feeling pretty optimistic about the cloud forecast although there's still some uncertainty

Tomer Burg came out with some pretty bad ass HREF maps for the event. I’m pretty optimistic! This is way too close to not take the drive so ima go. Would really like some rural landscape to watch from around Jonesboro.I'm still planning to be somewhere between Fort Smith and Little Rock probably. Leaving first thing in the morning.

Yeah it's like I said... There was no way I was gonna sit here and watch 95 percent when it's this close... Even if there's some clouds oh well(I think we have about the best shot of clear skies of nearly anyone on the path til you get into the Northeast tbh). I mean I hope it's clear but it's better than nothing lol
Yep! I never have truly been Storm chasing but tomorrow if I could have a backroad moment to view totality, I’d be satisfied.
Literally the lowest probability on the entire map is in Arkansas except maybe Maine
What really got me today is when the legend Tim Marshall said he was going to the same area I want to..
Got to our hotel north of Nashville. Still planning on going to Carbondale, Illinois in the morning and watching the full eclipse at the festival at SIU. I guess if it looks horrible can always punt and go somewhere else. But Carbondale looks just as good as anywhere else relatively
Lucky Dogs Post pics. Ill be having a totality all day, underneath warehouse roofs lol.
I remember this one around noon when I was in school on the NC coast and it was cloudy and got very dark and the lights came on outside.

Good luck yeah high clouds may hurt us here. Well see. I don't think anywhere on this track is completely perfect but we're in better spots than most I think
Lots of national media in Russellville. Is that where you are ?That's a good sign right?
It's neat to watch it nosedive. Biggest thing I've noticed is the sunlight isn't hot on the skin like it was an hour ago.
