    Good luck man.....I'm headed southeast out of Omaha early.....probably down to KC then cut east on 70.....the interstate is in totality for a long ways and based on cloud cover and time of day I'll peel off at some convenient point.....enjoy the eclipse everybody....it's the only eclipse you got

    I mean that panel doesn't look awful for MO.....I'm diverting to at least Fayette....that drive from Omaha is basically entirely within the totality path once I get into MO.....could be problematic traffic wise....

    I'm in Omaha tonight but could drive down 29 to MO.....I'm 20 miles out of Omaha now.....crash for 6 hours and then leave.....get as far southeast as possible Like Fayette MO or somethjng

    Really nervous about traffic in and out of these little 2,600 pop towns in NE.....anywhere really in the path.....probably will leave at like 2am or 3am from Omaha....love spending $130 for 6 hrs sleep lol
  24. ice1972
    I go between second guessing my target and accepting that I should just enjoy the whole trip and the eclipse whatever the conditions....it's the only eclipse you got
