Peak eclipse in my hometown (92% blockage!) is in less than ten minutes, and it's. Frickin'. CLOUDY.

I hope those of you also in eclipse range are having better luck of it than I am, and wish you the best observing experience possible. Enjoy it for me as well, for I shall have to rely on twenty-two year old memories instead.

I had the same cloudy experience as you. Iowa's weather struck again! At least the pictures from other places look good.

Wait, are you also in Iowa?* Because that would really have made it the same cloudy experience.

(*Did I know that? Argh, I don't remember who anyone is after the move from LJ! *scowls at the internet*)

I'm in Des Moines. I tried to watch the eclipse from my local library, but the clouds had other plans.

(I was qable on LJ. I played Anissina in CFUD, if that helps.)

Ah. I'm in Iowa City, though I commute to Cedar Rapids for work. And yeah, the clouds were brutal, ugh. Mom and Dad say they had luck at peak eclipse by looking for the sun through their eclipse glasses, but I didn't even think to try that, so I guess I'm waiting for 2024 :/

(Thank you, that does help ^^a I was pretty sure I knew you via CFUD, though I wasn't sure at all from there >_> I will add that the name qable looks more familiar than Anissina, though some digging may help with that as well.)
