It's cloudy. But it could clear up a little. We get stormy weather after the e-clips.

Cloudy and a little rain here today. I’ve seen one total and several partials. On the last partial eclipse I noticed that the sunlight shining through the trees and then onto the concrete driveway made hundreds of little images of the partially obscured sun. It’s the same effect mentioned in the box projector mentioned above.

Am I the only one who has seen an eclipse and been very underwhelmed? Yes. It was interesting in a scientific-ish sense. We were not in totality. I didn't have eye protect, etc but I did happen to glance at the sun once and for a split second I could see a piece missing but it was far too bright to look at .. so I didn't. What I thought interesting was the light got slightly "funny", just vaguely dim, and the temperature dropped mid-way through the morning of a fairly hot day. Otherwise, a flash in the pan where I was.

Seen a few. Pretty neat for a few minutes, then back to work.
Certainly nothing I’d sacrifice a human for….

We were in totality. Until then, it was so so.

I believe it is about maxed out here. Sky is nearly completely clear.

Got pretty dark here. 95% coverage, but so cloudy couldn't see sun or eclipse at all.

Coudy and raining here in Magnolia. It did darken up for a while though.

I've been beneath 3 in all of my years. Two beneath cloud cover and under the 2017 event centerline with a clear sky. A very unique experience and well worth the travel. Would have traveled for this one, but Cookie did a knee replacement about a week back and was no where near being up for an extended road trip.
