The eclipse will be moving west to east on Monday.
Michigan will not be in the path of totality -- it's much too far north -- but there will be a partial eclipse visible in the mitten state. The moon will cover about 80 percent of the sun in Michigan.
DO NOT look at the sun, however, without special glasses. It doesn't matter what kind of anecdotal evidence you may have from previous eclipses -- why take the risk of harming your vision forever?

Next eclipse is April 8, 2024
A better opportunity for Michiganders to see a total solar eclipse is April 8, 2024, when the path of totality could make its way into Toledo, Ohio. If you want to wait another seven years, that will be a much quicker drive for anyone who wants to see the total solar eclipse firsthand.
