If you’ve seen the images outlining where the total solar eclipse will fall this August, you’ve probably expected Rhode Island to be completely out of the path. Fear not! We’re not going to miss all of the fun. We the people of Rhode Island will get to experience some of the amazing sight right from home as a partial eclipse. Wow!
The Great American eclipse will span the US from Portland, Oregon to Charlestown, South Carolina on August 21st.

This will be the first full solar eclipse in decades and people are pretty excited about it.

One of the most striking things about the eclipse this year is that it will occur in the middle of the day!

Be sure to step outside in Rhode Island between approximately 1:30 and 4:00 pm to see the eclipse come and go.

This is going to be such a bizarre and amazing day! Where will you catch the eclipse from in the state?
