Thanks, scott. Derrick pets our friend the chief astronomer at Franklin Institute is in the path of totality just north of kansas city in st. Joseph, missouri. Hi there, derek. Good morning, how are you. Good. Im a little concerned just looking at it, i see some cloud in that sky. Oh, no, dont worry about that. Those will burn off by the time eclipse start and we will be in great shape here. Okay. Here is your challenge. Okay. We have been talking about this for a month. Im almost to the point of sick of it but, so tell me something i dont know about a solare clips. Tell you something you dont know about a Solar Eclipse. Okay, well, Solar Eclipses will eventually evolve, so that we will no longer have total Solar Eclipses ever. What . We will have what are called ring eclipses where we have a ring of sunlight around the moon. If you hang around long enough , mike, you have been around long enough already but if you hang around longer you might be seeing some of those. What a smart alex. You might. I have another question. Yes. The sunnies 90 million miles away, it is gigantic. The moon is just smaller then the earth. So, why would this little bit i thing called the moon cast such a big shadow. That is a really great question, mike. It is really cool ratio of size and distance between the sun and the moon, and the earth. It goes like this the moon is 1400 and distance from the moon is 1400 from the distance to the earth and sun. What that does is set up this cool one to one distance to size ratio so that the moon looks like it is exactly the same size as the sun in the sky. There are slight variations to that so sometimes the moon is a little bit closer in its orbit and we have those ring eclipses and occasionally moon is farther away from the earth and so, the moon is a lot, can ab larger or appear larger then sun in the sky but we dont note that is during an eclipse so much. Kind of the same thing as your head right now because your head is so close tour lens. So my head right now, my head right now would be bigger then the sun, yes. So many people are talking about how they will see this. There is a frenzy trying to get their hands on the glasses you gave us ours. We appreciate that. Yes. Can they look at it in a reflection, water reflection or what are other ways people can do it and still be safe. Lots of other cool ways to observe this event safely. One of them is yes, you can set up a bucket of water or tub of water and look at a reflection of the event in the water, that is one way to do it. Other thing, an indirect method where you use something that has tiny holes in it. Something like a california works well. Pull this out. Just stand with your back to the sun, hold it in the sun and then the shadow of the ground underneath youll see has all these circles. Well, during the eclipse they will look like crescent suns and because it has so many holes youll have lots of crescent suns. Yes. Isnt that cool. I like that one. And failing that other thing you can do let me see if i can make this happen because im balancing on my lap. Just a second. Other thing take your fingers like this cross together like this and little hold that show up between your fingers act as pin hole camera.

If you didnt get a chance to get glasses you are fine we have you covered with lots of ways to be able to see. Tell me about this partial eclipse here. We have a huge solar viewing canopy covered in the silver black polymer that blocks out 98. 9 percent of the sun making it safe to see the surface of the sun and disk of the moon coming across the sun during the partial eclipse. We will have tents out here and it is free. Free. We will be out here on the winter side street of the Franklin Institute in the new ly renovated park by philadelphia. We will be out here from 12 to 4 00. Eclipse starts at 1 21 so check it out. You dont need glasses just come to the Franklin Institute , it is that simple. Quincy, i love his shirt are they selling those shirts. It is so cute. Are we selling these shirts here can we get these shirts here. Im not sure. Alex wants your shirt. Take it off. The other question is for the area, mike and i have been going back and forth you will be able to look up or down at the ground at the tents they have set up. I vaguely can hear you but you can look inside the tents. It will block out almost all of the light of the sun. All we will see is a little bit to see disk of the sun. Might not get picked up by camera but it will look like a orange disk and when you sue mean shadow will be cast across the sun. I see it there. It is free. That is cool. 6,000 people under that tents it will be fun. Good day it is monday august 21st, the day is here 2017. Moons magical moment, final count down as world wait s for Solar Eclipse extravaganza, the sky conditions for the moon of totality. And then we will still snag those safety glasses for free.

So jenny, lets get back over to the line on walnut street in between eighth and ninth. That is something i have been getting tweets, people are concerned about people cutting in line, other people want to know should they bother to come because line is so long. Reporter i asked the head of security here at wills eye how many glasses do you even have . He said i cant tell you, it is a secret but one of our fans on twitter works man named denise reached out and said i called wills eye on friday they have about 300. Hopefully all of these people will be getting glasses. I dont know. I cant tell how many people are in line at this point. Line continues to grow. First person with actually was here before we even got here and then since about 5 00 a. M. Numbers have just gone up. Solar eclipse will go on between 1 20 and 4 00 this afternoon. Max coverage in philadelphia at 2 44. A lot of doctors have been talking to us over weekend. We have talked to two. They are concerned. They want people to get these glasses but problem is glasses are a hot commodity and hard to get their hands on. A lot of eye centers have been out. Wills eye announced that they do have a supply, and might be limited supply, but that is not why these people are out here. I dropped the ball. She goes we dont have glass snows what do you mean i saw zoo was going to have them. We stood in line for two hours at the zoo. They sold out with maybe about 20 or so people ahead of us. We went home. I saw that wills eye would give them away. I said that is our last hope. Reporter why sit worth getting out of bed so early. Because i really wanted to see the eclipse and it is so amazing how the moon covers the sun. Reporter we are running out of time. Clocks are ticking. If you know of anywhere else that is giving away these glasses, let us necessity on twitter and facebook, mike and alex. I freakishly do not have any glasses. Yeah. But jenny, let us know keep an eye on for people cutting in line im getting tweets people are upset and it will be a frenzy like black friday. Dont get in a fight over the eclipse. My friend over at rouge rob wasserman, he need four. I told him i would probably be able to get him. You dont have them for yourself. I know. Get in line hat 10.

Ill do it because you are very excited about this. It is okay. You know jerry lewis died yesterday morning in las vegas ninetyone years old. I swear in some movie, did he that hey lady, yes. One of the viewers said, no that didnt happen and that was a mess. We have been looking to find some version of the lady, as a tribute to him and i think it was a movie called ladys man. Lets play this. This is on letterman. Ladies. Okay. Ladies man. Here it is. No, no. Very famous typewriter scene. We heard him do it. He did do it. You were not incorrect. He dit on letterman. I dont know what the set up was for letterman. It must be for movies. Someone told me on twitter it was in the movie ladies man, he says lady. It might be because why would he just say it for letterman if he didnt say it anywhere else. Maybe they were clearing up did you ever say lady, maybe saying, no i never did could do you it now. Okay. Ill research this better next time. This may be even more sad on saturday when i heard dick gregory died. He is legendary, one of the first comedian toss use humor and later in life he became motivational speaker and promoted power of prayer and good health he was 84, he affected so many lives. I remember last time i saw him, who was he with, he was with robert kline a double bill, robert kline went on first and dick gregory came out and did stand up. It was up in engelwood, new jersey.

One or two. Time is particular to go make sure your kid are vaccinated before they go back to school. Some kid are already back to school. But Pennsylvania Health department has revised its list, for students going back to school that shortens the great period and add an additional vaccine for some. I know somebody that would know about the requirement doctor radcliff is here. Hi there doctor nine. Good morning. How young are we talking. Before entering kindergarten there is a number of vaccinations that need to take place. Most of them are applicable for kindergarten registration. They are about to start in a couple days. Yes. This is a polio vaccine. Polio vaccine before it was only required for i want to clarify. This is for state of pennsylvania. Every state has different vaccination requirements so important for parents to get on the department of Health Web Site and become familiar and also to talk with their pediatrician is only pennsylvania made changes or they all did and we are focusing on it. We are focusing on pennsylvania. When it says four doses of polio vaccine what do you mean four different times. In the pennsylvania it was only three that were required before starting and now a fourth dose required before starting kindergarten. Hold on, if i got a kid starting kind garden in a couple days, he will get hit were four vaccinations. Most children are on a schedule. They start from early on some children start getting it early at birth and over four or five years before they start kindergarten. You have to make sure you have had four by the time you go to that school in kindergarten. There is a very set schedule. For children they see their doctors and pediatricians are excellent in making sure they get their recommended dosages. This is big change is before there was a provisional period of eight months. That is in longer the case s you can get up to date. Now you have only five days. If you have a regular pediatrician wouldnt he or she know this. Yes, yes. But one of the things requirements are required to do is to keep on top of things w your back to School Checklist with backpack and School Supplies this is what we wanted you to add to make sure i am nations are up to date. Put more graphics, before you go into 12th grade you need a second dose of meningitis. You need a second dose of meningitis vaccine to prevent meningitis. You usually get it before seventh and now they want a second dose of that. Eight months, big difference between eight months and five days. Yes. Five days is that it if not compliant. This was passed back in march but because we are getting back to the schooltime this flurry of activity this is where we want to you get vaccinations in check. Is this five days from when School Starts or when you get notification saying you are not up to date. If you do not have your vaccinations complete before School Starts you cannot begin you can get a five day waiver and after thaw can get the extended for some reason medically you cannot get it but requires a doctor certificate or nurse or physician certificate with the very specific plan. Just doesnt fall by way side. They want to necessity something is in effect this vaccination will be given in this period of time. Basically schools are a Perfect Place for out break to happen. Children are in close quarters with other children and we want them not to have a out break here. That is why we are doing it. Just wait forgo a breath. How do i prove to the teacher, my kindergarten that i have had my kid get all four vaccinations. Is there a card that your Health Care Provider fills out i do want to point out one other thing, parents are asking questions does this change religious, philosophical offer medical exemptions. There is in changes made for this. If you have a medical exemption for your child you will in the be left out of school for that. Doctor nina, are you single it is just yes or no. Are we go to go commercial. Wow. That is first time i have seen that response on here from mike. Somebody will upset after this see, you probably got her in trouble. Dont answer that, whatever you do. Ill see you then, doctor nina is not giving up anything if you decide to get married do you feel like you should marry your best friend, or you just met somebody three days ago and had sex with them on a ship. This may be a bad example. I think of brown sugar, do you know that movie. I know that sugar. Yes, they have been friends forever since they were kid. You ever hear at a wedding i married my best friend, there is research that says, dont. Dont do it doctor nina. Am i your best friend. You are my best friend. Lets get married.

Im told it was supposed to happen at 8 30 but now we are hearing it is pushed back, so it could be 9 00. We will keep checking in. We dont know how many . Some people asking can they still come down. It is a gamble. Look at this. I have heard you can only get one per person but move it around the family. It is hard to find these things. I dont know where else we can get them at this point. Great they are doing it because you cannot look directly at the sun, is that right, scott. Absolutely and those glasses have to be certified glasses as well. Live look outside our studios here in olde city and you can see mostly sunny skies, high sirus cloud overhead and we will have high cloud and fair weather puffy cumulus cloud later today. 72 degrees. Humidity at 84 percent. The eclipse will begin at 1 21 in the afternoon, max eclipse for us, partial eclipse for philadelphia area at 80 percent coverage. High temperature 87 degrees with that mixture of sun and cloud. As we look at ultimate doppler were dry right new but as we move toward later this afternoon especially off to the west heres 1 00 oclock still looking good as that begins, by 2 30, 2 44 mass eclipse looking good but off to the west look at these isolated downpours expect with those pop up showers and storms to the west of the region. Overnight isolated storm 91, hot tomorrow, wednesday scattered showers and then look at cooler temperatures upper 70s to lower 80s heading in the weekend. Good morning. If you are driving, this afternoon during the time period of the Solar Eclipse remember do not stop on the highways, no stopping on the schuylkill, i95. Pull off, safe area, parking lot put the car in park and enjoy it. Keep your head lights on if you are driving throughout the whole duration and do not wear those eclipse glasses when you are driving. They are only used off to the side looking up at the sun and be careful of the pedestrians that are walking and looking up into the sky. We dont want any accidents out there. Live look at the schuylkill, sun glare, so sun has made its a experience and ready to go for eclipse later today. Alex, back over to you. But with those glasses, trust me, you cannot see anything when you put these on not a good idea to do this and drive. Lets in the do that today. Thanks, bob. We cannot forget about animals. Some people saying animals are acting kind of strange. What should do you with your animals, will they act weird . Will they do something . Well, laurens at the zoo right now and she will tell us what we should do with our pets and what the zoo will be doing today. Heres the big thing, not a lot of people know what will happen. It is a test run. We came to the zoo we are here with iain. Good morning, thanks for joining us. Good morning, thanks for having me. Today will be a field day because you will just sit and watch. A lot of uncertainty. Were not sure what the animals will do but depending on their natural behavior we do expect certain animals will react to the different event. People wandberg bird, is it raptor ridge the new section of the zoo. Thinks part of the recent project green light exhibit at the zoo. We feature bald eagles one of the largest north american bird of pray. These guys are hunter that use daylight. They hunt for fish. They scavenge during the daylight hours. So species like this during the eclipse we are not sure what they will do but we imagine that because their natural behavior indicates they would go to roost at night and have quiet time during the dark periods of the eclipse. We will walk over and see an owl, right a barn owl. Yes. They are nocturnal. They are usually sleeping right now. Owls are most active at dawn and dusk, so like that is when they spend most active hours at dawn and dusk. These guys will likely become more active during the eclipse and flying around and searching for food unlike eagles it is getting dark and time to go to sleep for the night. Who is this down at the end where you said dont get too close. We have our fired native bird of pray down here, thinks a red tail hawk named shan dough a. It is a species we see here in philadelphia one of the more common hawk species and like eagles they are a sight predator. We imagine that these guys like the eagles may go in for the day. Observe these around the city being less active. With most bird that are active during the day we will see most of the singing, forge ago this we night see in an average day become less throughout the eclipse. Iain, this is Cool Research and you get to do it again in 2024. I guess. Report back and let us know what we find out today. We will. Thanks very much. Alex and mike, this is a big day at the zoo. Lots of research. I know, i am watching a friends dog, pretty interesting to go see what happened to this dog. I was trying to die demo here because somebody on twit ter asked me, i keep getting this question and i dont know how to explain it. Okay. From pat just how dark will it get . That is hard to quantify or show on television, isnt it or explain because we know 80 percent covered. It would be about like this i think this is too dark. You will still have 20 percent of the sun sticking out. Earlier some people were saying it is like when you have a hotel room and you have your curtain closed and there is a big difference between curtains are all the way closed and little crack of light. You can still see a lot. Think of it like that when you have the curtains opened up you can still see a lot. In fact that is what i will do i will go to the sophie tell, rent a room and close the curtains. Then you wont see anything you are so over this. The opposite effect is happening, im getting so excited and mike is going the opposite way. Im ready. Lets get this going. Rooftop. We have our friend ant kwan he says he is willing. You should cook too. He hasnt responded to that. He has a barbecue pit out in the roof of his building. I will bring a salad. Okay. Maybe ill bring moon pie, listen to what i will do here. There is a blank space on social media, do you see what i did. Nice. Taylor swift wipes out her instagram, twitter, facebook accounts. I think this is a publicity stunt for her new cd what else would it be. Okay. We are in the middle of planning an eclipse party, in prompt to eclipse party, i will bring my taylor swift cd s. She says that shes getting rid of instagram and facebook and twitter. She has deleted all this. But i think it is a publicity stunt for her new cd. Do you think so. We have seen other artists do it, kanye west has done it even though they dont really get along. Did you see jayz really, to kanye over the weekend. What does that mean. The clap back. He has to do action, you just cant say clap back. Yes. Interesting to go hear what he thought about the fact that kanye called him out at his concert and talked about his kid. He says, dont bring in my family. You dont talk about my family that is when it is different. He shed some light about the elevator incident with solange. We will talk about that at 9 00. She has been an olympian six times. Ally raysman challenging gymnasts to talk about a sex abuse scandal that she says went on. Shes calling for sweeping changes in the organization following charges against a former team doctor. She believes u. S. A. Gymnastic, she blames u. S. A. Gymnastic for failing to stop the abuse and the organization just swept it under the rug. She called larry naser a monster. More than 125 women accused him of sexually abusing him under the guide of treatment. He is in prison in michigan on child pornography charges. Good lord. People at very top, that work at the office every single day, u. S. A. Gymnastics they need to do better. Its making me sad. Im here to support my teammates because we got inducted in the hall of fame and aim he here to support the girls who are compete willing. I love the olympics. I love gymnastics. I love the sport. But i dont spore hoy u. S. A. Gymnastics is handling everything right now. 125 young ladies . They say they were touched in a prep eighthly . I mean one is too many. Oh, yeah. 125, that is ridiculous. U. S. A. Gymnastics responded they say we welcome raise man passion on this issue we are appalled by conduct of the which larry nassar are accused and we are or that i any athlete has been harmed during her or his gymnastics career. We are taking this issue head on and we want to work with al y and all interested athletes to keep athletes safe soft response. I think so too. We will stay on that one for sure. Were putting together this impromptu eclipse party at our friend antoines apartment building. Are you coming. Yes. It is over in the fairmount area, is that close enough to the sun for you . It is ninth floor. We will be on the roof. I will take that. Even though sunnies 90 million miles away you want to be nine flyers higher. I want nothing but sky so i can lie back and look up. Again i have no problem finding the sun every day of my life but that is fine. Dont kill my vibe. Dont kill my vibe. How do you organization an eclipse party ask me. How do you organ eclipse party. You plant it. Bad moon rising, is that clearance, clearwater and revival. Should we be concern, isnt this technically a full moon. You know what happens on full moons. Yes. Well, hold on a second. The moon will be the same size as it always is. But we will see a full moon though. It is always same size but sometimes we see different parts of it. This will be a full moon. No. No what. Moon will be same size as it always is. You are not even going to be able to see the moon. Yes, you will. I dont think so. Once it is covering the sun you will see it. You will see a black dot. Which is moon. Yes. I dont understand. It is still a full moon though. When we think full moon the sunnies shining on the moon, right. So you are saying this doesnt count and the earth is kind of covering it. How often, the moon goes around the earth every 28 days , is that how we get our months, staff . We need derek pits here. Earth spinning, moon spinning and moon goes around the earth once a month. Can we just talk about the eclipse. Again, the sunnies 90 millionmile is a way and i can go outside every day and find it in the sky. He is such a kill joy. For some reason karen will tell us the best place to see the sun. I think this is great. I do want to know this. It is not just about looking up. I want a fun atmosphere. This doesnt happen all the time. You are looking for a party not looking at the eclipse. I want to look at the eclipse during a party. You finally got it. Mike has been saying it all morning long, it is party. We want to go to the specific places, party that is happening like the Franklin Institute. You saw cool things that they have with the canopy and different scopes to look at. They are having their part friday noon to four today. Okay. Belmont plateau, that is just because we have views of what is occurring in the sky line as well looking at eclipse. Make for a nice picture. Yes, you got it. Penn treaty park along the Delaware River. Same thing. Anytime you have water and eclipse youll have a beautiful photograph to take those selfies or whatever we are calling them. That makes no sense. Isnt it prettier to take a lot at sunset. How will you get suns reflection, isnt it going to be almost straight up in the sky, what are you going to get helicopter shooting down in the water. It is happening at 2 44. It will be lower. Straight up is noon and now it is lower in the sky bay it is later. Do you see karens face right now. Like look here, honey. Please tell me where i can see the sun.
