Reply to comment by JGCities in A unique website dedicated to just 4 minutes and 27 seconds, the maximum duration of the Total Solar Eclipse of April 8, 2024 across North America. Where will YOU be? by MichaelZeiler

Our original plan was to go to Charleston to watch it on a boat, but then the weather was going to be shit for Charleston and I changed to north Georgia mountains. All the people we were going to see in Charleston were unimpressed by the eclipse behind 100% cloud cover.

That’s why for this next eclipse I’m reluctant to make big plans. Plane tickets, house rental, etc. what if there is a storm that day?

We were staying in Charleston. Drove 39 miles towards Columbus that day to get clear skies. Pro-tip - big lakes pull humidity out of the skies during the day and tend to have clearer skies
