But the question is, exactly how many people have come here . Nashville is about a oneday drive for 165 Million People. That many could get here in about a day. The question is how many people drove here and how many folks may be stopping on the side of the road just to gaze up the sky . We have a drone in the air, took footage. At the grand old opry youll have upwards of 100,000 people. It includes the hotel and the mall. When you factor it all in, you could have thousands of people just on this piece of property looking up when the eclipse happened. As i look up right now, the cloud coverage isnt too bad. The city handed out about 4,000 glasses. Anthony, the glasses are key. When you put them on, by the way, youll notice you dont see a darn thing until you look up at the sun and it all becomes clear. A tidbit for you, if you want to use your phone to take a picture, experts say put your phone inside the glass, thats the best way to take it, because it can actually damage your cell phone lens.

That line stretches from outside portland oregon, like salem, to charleston, north carolina. The line of totality is about 70 miles wide. The gray shaded area, 90 covered for atlanta, denver, seattle. Outside of that area, the light gray shaded area in places like philadelphia, san francisco, 75 of your sun is going to be covered by the moon. But as far as the weather, it looks pretty darn good for this eclipse. I think the two trouble spots will be places around kansas city, missouri, too much cloud cover for you. I think charleston, South Carolina, youve got the cloud cover issue as well. Keep your eyes to the skies. This could be a great show. Over to you.
