Gail in Virginia Posted August 21, 2017 Report Posted August 21, 2017 We were in about 92% eclipse band, but we had plenty of clouds too. I saw it for a second, then the clouds came back. I'm glad I got my glasses for free! Maybe I will see more in 2024. 4 Quote
Jack from Ohio Posted August 21, 2017 Report Posted August 21, 2017 Save your eclipse glasses! the next total solar eclipse will be April 8, 2024 and we will be in the center of the totality ban!! Taking parking reservations now... 4 Quote

NECPA in NEBRASKA Posted August 22, 2017 Report Posted August 22, 2017 We went out back and saw the 98% occlusion. It was pretty cool, as was the temperature for a short while. I'm so glad that the high clouds didn't obstruct it. 3 Quote
FDNY Posted August 22, 2017 Report Posted August 22, 2017 Oh, that was yesterday? I was in the dark. I may as well have been, didn't notice anything. I have memories of '79, but remember the one in the 60s when our neighbor Mr Corso made all the kids cardboard cutout devices for viewing. I still had my "13 Ghosts" 3D glasses but was told they were useless for viewing. 4 Quote
Roberts Posted August 22, 2017 Report Posted August 22, 2017 full coverage, zero clouds at my office. Very cool. 4 Quote
