North Olmsted, just outside Cleveland, had light cloud cover, which resulted in diffusion and lack of sharp edges.

I know North Olmstead! I lived in Westlake for my elementary school years.

It was cloudy on and off, but just before and after totality the skies were clear. Best part was I didn't have to travel just hung out in my backyard. I didn't take any photos though as I didn't want to fry my phone.

I slept through it all.

I mean, when you've already seen hundreds, what's one more?

[Dave]

Exactly.

I actually was able to see one of the little red fire plumes with the naked eye. Well, it was more like a little red bright dot on the bottom right of the edge of the occlusion .

This looks like the opening of a post-apocalyptic movie.

"Then, one day, darkness fell over the land. And our world was never the same again."

This looks like the opening of a post-apocalyptic movie.

it is actually the plot of a story by Isaac Asimov, for one of the Black Widowers' Club stories.

Looking to the future, looks like August 12, 2045 will be the date of possibly the most expensive tickets to Disney World, ever.

I saw the 2044 and 2045 ones less than a year apart and thought to myself, "Looks like 2045 is the year Florida descends into panic, chaos, and ruin."

I kinda hope I'm alive to see the oligarchical hellscape the world will be then.

TIL the abbreviation for Guam is apparently OU? Maybe it's just extreme JPEG compression.

Thinking it's a compression thing because Guam's abbreviation is GU.

First thunderstorm of the season here in Omaha. Not really weird but it is weather.
