So only a few hours drive to the centerline. Which is worth the
effort, even for this type of eclipse.

lol, someone else suggested walking. i would like to propose a compromise >and suggest bicycling there.I'll drive, thank you. Aside from being a week long bike trip, there's
also the problem of 50 pounds or more of astronomical imaging
equipment! And the possibility of dangerous heat.

It's probably cloudy too?
So, its waste of time, energy, gas and money.

I'll be heading down to central New Mexico, so the odds are sunny
conditions. If it looks like something is coming, I may look elsewhere
along the path, from SW Colorado down through NM. If there's a system
over the whole area, I'll pass on the trip. Forecast looks good,
though.

There are the known knowns, things we know we know;

those things we don't know we don't know.

My suggestion for walking wasn't actually directed at Stardust, it was meant to elicit a response from our local hypocrite-in-residence, who then chimed in right on cue.

I would have blamed it on your little prison stay in Florida, but you were pretty obviously screwed up before that.
