Several states are set to plunge into darkness during a solar eclipse in April, with authorities warning of the dangers that residents could face as a result.
One town supervisor said he was “scared as hell” about the task facing his team covering mountain roads and neighborhoods in the North Country of New York when the eclipse hits on the afternoon of Monday, April 8. Officials in a number of other states are facing the same problems.
Concerns over distracted drivers, gridlocked traffic from out-of-towners flocking to view the spectacle, cell phone outages from overloaded cell towers, large crowds gathering, and an increased demand for food, water, and fuel are creating a logistical problem for regions across the U.S. that are in the path of totality. Many schools across the country have even decided to close over safety fears.
Flipping ridiculous.
Not the first eclipse to ever happen.
I do believe concerns over this solar eclipse is being blown way out of proportion. These predictors need to find a meaningful job to keep their minds occupied
NSA and CIA are covering up alien transmissions around the solar corona! The ISS has also intercepted coded signals but reporting has been quashed on National Security grounds. United Nations emails suggest diplomats should head to the bunkers at the Greenbriar. Believe me or don’t but you can no longer deny what I’ve been saying all these years!!!

Wow. Just wow.
I think you need to put your foil hat away.
I think I saw that movie
It’s just another day, nothing critical is going to happen just because the moon blocks the sun for a few minutes. We all will survive. Lol
Chicken Little : The sky is falling, the sky is falling……
I remember a total solar eclipse when I was a child. We looked at it through broken beer bottle glass.
