A solar eclipse is set to grace the local skies on Monday, April 8th. While Lawrence County won’t witness a total eclipse, the coverage is expected to be approximately 93%, slightly less than the sun’s concealment during the 2017 eclipse. The peak of this celestial event is anticipated around 2 p.m. In case the weather cooperates, the Lawrence County Public Library officials are planning to organize a viewing and educational program on the library green. They will be distributing one pair of solar glasses per family, subject to availability. It is crucial to remember never to gaze directly at a solar event without proper eye protection. For safety guidelines, it is advisable to refer to online resources.
