Wegmans stores in New York to close temporarily during solar eclipse. What shoppers should know
Wegmans will close 48 stores for a half hour on April 8 so employees can view the total solar eclipse. All of the stores, stretching from Erie, Pennsylvania to Syracuse are in the path of totality.
The shutdown will last from 3 to 3:30 p.m., the company announced Thursday. During that time, all store services, including pharmacy, grocery and Meals2Go pickup and delivery will be unavailable.
“The opportunity to experience a total solar eclipse comes once in a lifetime, and we don’t want our employees to miss out,” said Patrick Bourcy, Wegmans regional manager said in a statement.
