Town officials in Greenville are urging visitors to stay off Moosehead Lake if they're traveling to the region to view the upcoming total eclipse. Greenville Town Manager Mike Roy says the conditions on the lake vary. "It's a wide-open space and it looks like a field right now, because it's covered with snow. And you know, we're projected at 30,000 people, and if we have 3,000 out there on the ice in one area and then it collapses, that's a huge concern for us," he says.
