I recall as a kid the eclipse of the early 60's. It was a Saturday and we were either driving on vacation going north or maybe coming home, no hullabaloo, emergency measures act or any BS like that, got somewhat dark for a couple of minutes , dad might have turned the headlights on, pretty soon it got light again , expect this one much the same as I am staying home with all the craziness out there edit : would have been this one https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_eclipse_of_July_20,_1963#:~:text=A total solar eclipse occurred,for a viewer on Earth.
