Where to look
At 5:55 PM the Sun is towards the west-southwest, 7° above the horizon. That is low, so you need a flat, open view in that direction, such as a beach, a hilltop or the edge of town.
What you will notice
Inside the path the Moon leaves a bright ring of sunlight. The light dims and looks oddly flat, but the sky stays blue. The ring is still far too bright to look at, so keep your eclipse glasses on throughout.

Viewing safely
Except during the brief total phase of a total solar eclipse, never look directly at the Sun without suitable solar viewing protection. Eclipse glasses should comply with ISO 12312-2. Cameras, binoculars and telescopes need purpose-made filters fitted over the front of the optics.
