Was in south Ontario, the sky was clear for about an hour before totality, and then about 15 minutes before, a big dark cloud came in and ruined it.
You are literally Old Man Yells at Cloud
Aren’t we all?
I had an entire planet in my way, didn’t see a damn thing.
Moon’s not a planet. It’s a moon that is orbiting a planet.
Edit: I’m big dum dum
I’m in the southern hemisphere. The entire planet earth was in my way. :-)
Unless he was in Australia, then that damn fat Earth was in the way.
We should destroy it to make room for an intergalactic expressway.
What a cunt planet
During the peak, clouds rolled in in the Philly area. I was able to see it on and off, but missed most of the peak except for a few second here or there. Sounds like others had it much worse than I did though, so I can’t complain.
I was outside the path of totality, but saw one during my childhood. Today I made a pinhole camera and took a quick look before my meeting started and was able to see the shadow of the moon maybe 50%-60% over the sun. When I came back out after my meeting it was cloudy.
Sorry you had clouds :-(
Be me, Canadian
Hear about big important eclipse
Go outside, waiting for sun to get covered
Big cloud comes and covers sun
mfw exactly what I was expecting happens
Sorrydeleted by creator
Mine was ruined by traffic and my clutch burning out due to the +8 hour traffic. currently waiting for a tow =(
Yes in East Tennessee. Totally cloud covered and raining to boot.
And then it seemed to clear up right when the eclipse was over!
Hamilton, up on the escarpment. Clouds were rolling through but it cleared enough to get this. Buddy used his eclipse glasses to capture this, I have a few shots without the glasses and the shots don’t look half as good.

If he had used his eclipse glasses, you would see nothing. Eclipse glasses are for the lead up to full totality. Once totality hits, you take them off, as well as any camera filters you might be using. The light from the fully blocked sun is too dim to see through solar filters.
I thought as much but all of my pictures were drastically brighter and I couldn’t replicate what he did. We have essentially the same phone so I assumed the glasses played a role in how dark it was
Well hello there. I’m closer to Niagara but in the same general area.
We had some clouds, but otherwise it was a good experience. Nice picture.
Well, here, I had clouds that had gotten in the way of the eclipse on Monday, even though it had gotten to a sliver of sun left before the moon moved away. I was able to see that there was dim sunlight here when there was a break in the clouds and seem mysterious in a way to me.
Totality went right over my house (Texas). Had a cloud obscured view about 30% of the time during the lead up to totality (70% of the time with no view). Saw two seconds of cloud dimmed totality before a thick cloud blotted it out. Sucked. Beautiful clear blue sky today.
Southern Texas checking in. I saw the sun twice for a total of six seconds. My city was within the path of totality, so I got to watch thousands of disappointed visitors block our highways.
I was in the 90% range. I tried to find the sun and couldn’t, although someone who was a few miles away said they saw part of it.
Shockingly it was a clear beautiful day in Akron Ohio. I’m shocked, tbh.
Yeah I saw it west of Cleveland. A little hazy at times but didn’t affect the experience much
Saw it in the metroparks at Stinchcomb. We really lucked out, great view!
Same here! The totality was still cool to experience, though. This might be the only time in my life I can say that I would have rather been in Cleveland.
