While rarely seen to the totality of 95% locally and almost 100% in southern Illinois, the National Weather Service says we will see another soon. Chris Miller notes the eclipse is going to be hard to miss, but it will also come with its risks without proper precautions.

 

 

If you don't have access to the proper glasses, Miller says there are some other ways to safely view the eclipse. Visit https://www.weather.gov/source/crh/eclipse.html for more information.

 

 

Miller notes, this will likely not be the last time you can see something like this in the US as another eclipse is expected again.

 

 

The Warner Library in Clinton is providing their patrons and the community a viewing time and will be providing the proper viewing glasses as well.
