Hilton Head and Bluffton are all a buzz about the upcoming Solar Eclipse. Locals bars and restaurants are hosting “Eclipse Parties” and school is out of session! This is a big deal since this area is nearly in the line of totality (~98% totality). While this once in a lifetime event will last just over 6 minutes, many will travel to nearby spots to the line of 100% totality. Most American’s live within a days drive to the path of totality, and with many out of area schools not in session, there will likely be an increase in weekend travel. The last U.S. full eclipse of the sun that crossed from the Pacific Coast to the Atlantic was June 8, 1918.
So what’s the big deal? “You will be stunned at the apparition of the Sun’s corona, the majestic light show in the sky, and the full sensory experience of totality. You will remember this sight for the rest your life and will never regret the effort to see totality.” -Michael Zeiler, www.GreatAmericanEclipse.com (Find maps and more information on this website)
NASA will cover the eclipse live from coast to coast, beginning at noon EDT. Get more details on NASA’s Eclipse Site
