TOLEDO, Ohio — We are now less than 60 days until the spectacle of the total solar eclipse across the skies of northwest Ohio.
Dozens and dozens of communities in northwest Ohio are in the direct path of totality, providing an extremely rare opportunity to view the sun's corona or outer atmosphere.
For the total solar eclipse, totality is everything. To get the full viewing experience, you must be in the direct path of totality.
