Eclipse Predictions

Top: path of the eclipse. Bottom: how the states voted in the 2016 presidential election.

So the first Solar eclipse visible across the whole of the contiguous United States in a hundred years is taking place tomorrow. By looking at the path of points from which totality will be visible, one notices that apart from the Pacific seaboard, it passes neatly through the Red States from the 2016 presidential election.

Given that some have claimed that eclipses presage death and destruction, I’d say this is pretty ironic, no? 😉
