Because of the drain of resources on our very small town by thousands of extra people I suppose. And also due to extreme traffic congestion. I’m hoping they’re exaggerating. But I’m staying home anyway, lol.why stock up on groceries and have a full gas tank?
Oh, I read to stock up in groceries somewhere else.
This is what they posted on the city’s website:
We expect thousands, if not tens of thousands, of visitors
What to expect:
•Influx of travelers from all over the world
•Hotels, restaurants, and businesses will be crowded
•Large Crowds
•Increased traffic in days leading to event
•EXTREME congestion and traffic after eclipse ends.
•Mass exodus of tens of thousands of travelers at once, could cause several hour delays for travel.
Things to consider for April 8th:
•Fill up gas tanks prior to the weekend
•Allow for lots of extra travel time.
•Be kind! This is a rare, one day event.
•Get eclipse glasses EARLY. They are required to view this historic celestial event.
