CBS 58’s Feel Good Fridays: Mother’s Day weekend
MILWAUKEE (CBS 58) -- The excitement is building for Monday's total solar eclipse.
The moon shadow will cover early Monday afternoon, and it's creating a lot of excitement throughout much of the United States.
The so-called "path of totality" in which the sun will be completely obscured, covers 13 states. In Wisconsin, the sun won't be totally covered, but you will notice a difference.
Safety glasses will be a must for viewing the eclipse, you can't directly look at it or you risk serious eye damage.
CBS 58's Meteorologist Justin Thompson-Gee is traveling to Indianapolis to report on this event, and he says it will be a first for him.
"I am pretty excited to be in the path, to see everything get dark, y'know to see people around me, maybe this is their first one like me, maybe they've seen like a dozen before. You know, I think that's really exciting to me and then just to observe, like what are people doing? Is everybody getting quiet? Is everybody cheering?" Said Thompson-Gee.
