Ohio will be one of the best places in the nation to view next April’s total solar eclipse — and state lawmakers and Gov. Mike DeWine approved additional money to deal with the expected crowds.
Lawmakers recently approved $1 million to be allocated toward eclipse security in the 2024-25 state budget. Millions live within driving distance of the 124-mile-wide path of totality, where the total solar eclipse will be visible, and areas inside the path are expecting thousands of visitors.
