| How Much Of The Eclipse Will Louisville See |
Almost Famous
Louisville is almost in the sweet spot for the total solar eclipse. Think of it like being the kid who got 99% on the test - almost perfect, but that missing 1% is kind of a big deal, especially when it's the sun being completely covered.
But don't despair, Louisville! You're still getting a pretty decent show. Picture this: the sky darkening, the temperature dropping, and the sun looking like a giant cosmic fingernail clipping. That's right, you're going to witness a deep partial eclipse. It's like being in the front row of a sold-out concert, but the main act never quite shows up.
Tip: Don’t just scroll — pause and absorb.
Eclipse Glasses: The Essential Accessory
Now, before you start planning your eclipse viewing party (and trust me, you should), let's talk about eye safety. Looking directly at the sun, even during a partial eclipse, can cause serious eye damage. So, unless you want to explain to your grandkids why you're the coolest-looking pirate in the nursing home, make sure to wear those eclipse glasses.
