Yah, this is my major worry. The Great American Traffic Jam. Depending on how the day shapes up, I might book it homewards a few minutes after totality ends. Or back to my hotel for Monday night and deal with the (hopefully much lessened) mess on Tuesday.
Regardless, my Jeep (cheepy-Jeep Cherokee, not jeepy-Jeep like a Wrangler) will have a couple of cases of water, basic camping gear, and camping food.
