My dad sent this to me this morning, we saw totality for the 2017 one and now my partner and I are in Cincinnati to head into the path tomorrow to see it
I genuinely can’t emphasize how amazing it was to see. It’s one of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen.
It ruled so much. I drove the entire day, and then set up folding chairs on the side of the road. I did the same for the 2017 eclipse, but got screwed by cloud cover. Not this time, the weather held clear!
Really hope it isn't cloudy where I am tomorrow!
Totality adjacent gang, in the close enough zone.
My partner and I met my dad in a tiny town in Indiana where they had a whole festival going. They had a shockingly good band playing, I’ve never heard “The Wobble” played live and it was significantly better than the original lmfao
Sky was completely clear, it was seriously one of the most amazing things I’ve ever seen.
We left as soon as totality ended and managed to avoid hitting too much traffic, just like 30 minutes to get on the interstate and some standard rush hour traffic, basically like leaving any event ever. Compared to 2017 where we were in bumper to bumper traffic for like 6 hours split up by going down South Carolina side roads before having to turn around because of flooding
i think it's gonna be cloudy :/
i got to see like 30% of a crescent through a pinhole viewer before the clouds rolled in and it started raining :(
