Map (of world, so USA is at the edge): http://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/OH/OHfigures/OH2013-Fig05.pdf
Table: http://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/OH/OHtables/OH2013-Tab04.pdf

More or less, you won't see it if you're west of Ohio. Everyone in the USA will see it has already started when the sun rises, and will be at the maximum then. The times in that table are GMT, so it'll be 5 hours earlier than that Eastern Standard Time, tomorrow morning.

I certainly won't be watching them when the moon gets to far away to trigger a total eclipse. BlueJazz Nov 2013 #14
The odds that you will be watching anything at that point are exceeding low... Thor_MN Nov 2013 #15
