RE: Let me Introduce myself! I am thetravelman ! Traveling from Cleveland OH to Madras' OR for The Total Solar Eclipse! The only city in the USA with 100% totality
actually from what NASA told me is the other states were 99. whatever totality. Madras OR was the only city in the country with 100% totality. NASA said it lol
Interesting! I hadn't heard that at all - everything I read said Madras was popular due to the highest likelihood of clear skies along the path. Do you have the NASA source?
My friend does I will track it down , but you are correct. Because of the elevation and clarity a lot of people went to Oregon in general ! I mean did you look at the stars during the night? WOW I am from the east and we do not get skies like that!! Breath taking!
Ok you were actually correct there was 2 other cities that received 100% totality, however like you said Madras' was hands down the best place to watch it because of the elevation and location. Rock on girl! If it let me edit it i would change it to the best place lol... all good ment it with a kind heart!
No worries, and thanks for checking and getting back to me. It was definitely an awesome place to watch it, so much energy and a once-in-a-lifetime experience even if we make it to other eclipses.s. :)
