Are any of you lucky humans going to be viewing in a totality zone?
Only 62% coverage here in AZ.

I do remember the eclipse of '91 here. It was pretty dramatic. It was in July and the temps were in the typical 110's and the temp drop was INCREDIBLE.

 

[Mojo Ram]

I'm gonna bust out with the telescope if the cloud cover will get outta here.

Only 62% coverage here in AZ.

85% here in Cumberland, MD. Heavy thunderstorms predicted as well. This should get interesting.

 

[Selassie I]

It's about to start here and it's raining hard as hell. I'm glad I didn't bother getting those glasses now.

 

[OldSchool]

Kind of bizarre here, not sure the coverage but it's very strange sky. It's like you're inside a building with fluorescent lights that are dying, it's like half sun.

85% is significant. We're at peak here now. 62%
Meh....it's still hot and sunny side up with a side of slightly weird light. That '91 eclipse blew this one away.

We're in the 95% range. But it rained all morning. , its stopped now but still real cloudy

We're about 15 minutes from its max

Not much to see, grey clouds and kinda sorta a little darker then normal

We live in the 100% range I'm being told by my co workers. I wasn't too into this idea, but man, I'm glad I looked. Very cool.

 

[Memento]

I had a clear view and just...wow. It was so amazing.

 

[Memento]

Also, the crows around my house went completely nuts. And when the moon covered the sun, there was nothing but silence. Freaky, but very cool.

Took a couple of low-ends with my phone.

But yeah, was pretty cool. All though a bit under whelming for all the hype.

I wish the eclipse would happen at night. That way there could be really fun parties to celebrate it.
