LOUISVILLE, Ky. — The Great American Eclipse is just a few days away. On April 8, 2024, millions of Americans will look up to the sky to catch a glimpse of the once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Cities in the path of totality, which stretches from Texas to Maine, will experience anywhere from two to four minutes in darkness.
Near Louisville, the best spots to view totality will be just across the river in southern Indiana.
Remember! If you plan on viewing the eclipse, you need to always keep your solar-safe glasses on to protect your vision. The only time you can take off the glasses is if you are in 100% totality, and only during the brief few minutes of totality. Before and after that, you’ll need to keep them on.
When the eclipse begins and for how long you'll experience darkness depends on the location you are viewing the eclipse from.
Outside of the path of totality, you can still see a partial solar eclipse where the sun will appear as a crescent shape. Louisville will experience 99% totality.
