Good morning Kerrville! It looks like today will be cloudy, but cloudy or clear, the total solar eclipse will still happen. While we hope for awe-inspiring views, it's still crucial to prioritize safety during this phenomenon. ☀️🌕

Here are some essential tips:
✅Be patient. Be prepared.
❌ Do not stop on highways or impede traffic flow to view the eclipse.
✅ If you're traveling to view the eclipse, exercise caution on the roads and follow traffic laws.
❌ Never look directly at the sun without proper eye protection, even during partial phases of the eclipse. Use solar filters on cameras and telescopes.
✅ Use proper eye wear: Protect your eyes from harmful solar radiation by using certified eclipse glasses or handheld solar viewers. Regular sunglasses are NOT sufficient.
❌ Do not wear your eclipse glasses while driving.
✅Only use 911 for emergencies to keep those lines free. The non-emergency number is 830-257-8181.

Remember, safety is paramount during this extraordinary event. Let's make sure everyone can enjoy the solar eclipse safely and responsibly. Together, we can make it an unforgettable experience for all!

It's possible cell service may become congested, leading to difficulties connecting to cell towers on Monday. If this happens, FCC rules require all cell service providers to transmit 911 calls to the nearest cell tower, if available, so the emergency call will go through. However, in the unlikely event you can't reach 911, we want our guests to have locations of our Kerrville Fire Department Fire Stations. If you need help and can't get through to 911, go to the nearest fire station.

Station 1 – 1012 Water Street
Near intersection of Water Street and Tivy

Station 2 – 1750 Goat Creek Road
Intersection of Goat Creek and Coronado

Station 3 – 3225 Legion Drive
Corner of Loop 534 and Legion Drive

Station 4 – 725 Alpine Drive
Off of Sidney Baker N near IH10
