Eclipse chasers rejoice, as today is the day of this year's big celestial event! Unfortunately, for many of us Texans living directly in the path of the Moon's shadow, who have been looking forward to seeing this eclipse firsthand, clouds and possible thunderstorms are predicted to obscure the view, and favorable skies across the state will be hit-or-miss. But nevertheless, we hold out hope for a break in the clouds and wish everyone successful viewing.
Even for those not living in the path of totality, depending on proximity and local weather, the entire country will have the opportunity to witness some degree of partial eclipse. The next total eclipse in the U.S. won't happen until March 30, 2033, when totality will cross part of Alaska. And the next observable eclipse in the 48 contiguous states will occur on August 23, 2044, when parts of Montana and North Dakota will experience totality. A year later, on August 12, 2045, the path of another total solar eclipse will cross the country from California to Florida.

It's doubtful the world will end today, and my only prediction is that cats everywhere won't care.
