What city are you near?  I think I saw your earlier post from Texas.

Leakey, TX.

Clouds getting worse here.  Ugh.

[StretchCT]

Clouds rolling in. Oh well.  Still can see the sun through them for the most part.

Wispy clouds.  Cell camera is lousy.  Hope my regular camera comes out good

Camera is lousy too. Almost totality here. Already feels a little cooler.

[clm]

Crap, clouds just rolled in

3:26 is max for me

 

 

[snowlover2]

Like I said camera sucks but at totality!

[snowlover2]

And coming out of totality now.

[junior]

Wow that was awesome !!! Never experienced this before. 

[MaineJay]

Getting there, definitely cooling off.

[clm]

Cooling off here too

[TLChip]

Clouds rolled in, cell phone pic.

Didnt travel for this, out of totality. 

[StretchCT]

Patch of blue came out and its very dim here now

[Hoosier]

I ended up in a church parking lot on the outskirts of Ellettsville, IN.  4 minutes and 3 seconds of totality and clouds were a complete non-issue.  It's unfortunate that the time goes by fast.

May add more later, but one thing I observed this time that did not occur in 2017 was swarming bees.  They were going nuts in the lead-up to totality.

Cameras don't do it justice unless you're good at photography, and even then, nothing can replace seeing it with your own eyes.

Yep and I'm no photographer.  My knowledge is I know which way to point the lens

Spectacular! Wow!
