95.8% in Louisville.

Only thing that sucks is it'll be as I'm getting off work. So I guess I'll just hang around for an hour or so until it passes.

100% at 1:29:01 CDT. We'll be letting 60+ folks take an extended break slightly before, during and after totality. Everyone will receive authentic eclipse glasses and be served Moon Pies.

It wasn't mentioned but we should pick up some RC as well.

Wonder how dark it will get at 75%. I'm sure it will be obvious if looking at the sun but will the sky dim much at all?

you obviously still won't be able to look directly at the sun, but at 75%, it will look like it does between sunset and dusk.

In 1984 an annular eclipse passed over New Orleans. I'm not certain of the percentage but it wasn't total. It did darken and when you looked at the sidewalk under the trees, the sunlight came through and looked like thousands of crescents on the ground. It was quite a sight.

Yep. It's going to be fricking crazy. I'm staying far away from downtown.. probably won't even go into work. Last I heard law enforcement officials are really worried the interstate is going to be shutdown by parked cars
