I was headed out for lunch, Yaddy. https://i.imgur.com/jkx6Zdo.gif

Friend at lunch said yes, the total will go that far south.

When I was looking at maps last week I only noted it from New England, across NYS where I am, and into Ohio.

I don't GAF about Texas so I didn't look any farther. https://i.postimg.cc/y60mLtFJ/smiley-bashhead.gif

Well you're where you should be all the time
And when you're not, you're with some underworld spy
Or posting threads on the Vette Barn, threads on the Vette Barn

You're so Yadkin
Your driveway rock is probably missing, probably missing
Isn't it isn't it isn't it?

Bruze stole it, thought it was coal to burn in his stove.

Parked at the Walmart here about an hour ago:

Went from wood back to coal a few days ago cuz it got colder, but that old sun beating in all day is keeping it plenty warm in here. Coal is turned all the way down and it's 82 in the living room, probably 5 degrees warmer in the kitchen where the coal fire is.

You think I should use rocks instead of coal to keep it cooler? :shrug:

'65. Nice car!

I went outside, 50% cloudy, put on glasses, look at it, not much to see.

Show have gone Diamond Dolls for the businessman lunch, much more to see there!!

Aerovette 04-08-2024 1:43pm

Went to Five Gays today, could not afford fries, as double hamburger, no cheese, was $11.00,,, not bad, BUT NOT $11.00!!

We're in the 92% "blackout" range but too cloudy. Kids are bummed but we'll see if it clears a bit.

Big stink about the natural world.

Mike Mercury 04-08-2024 2:00pm

we're getting a cloud free view. Total darkness @ 3:09pm eastern in SW Ohio. Should be near 100%.

Onebadcad 04-08-2024 2:08pm

I am done with this, as my view from 2:40 PM did not get any more, as limited at 46%.
Hope some others see a lot more.

Aerovette 04-08-2024 2:14pm

I got a couple quick glances through cloud cover. It didn't impact my eyes like they said it would but maybe it takes a while and gq'jj hqhdhii pohcuvgx ughcfh ku yunj;aemd

You will be completely blind in both eyes by morning, as takes about 12 hours.
Do you have any nice cars to sell??

Yadkin 04-08-2024 2:23pm

Near perfect conditions here at Hot Springs Village. Very light clouds. 3-1/2 minutes of totality. Shadow bands, diamond ring, solar flares.

Nothingburger with a bite taken out of it.

three and a half minute vid from my place. My tower cam does not move any more upwards, so I took a land based view.

The cameras auto-exposure tried to keep it looking light outside.
