5. Is that overcast or smog?

It's clear over here on catalina. but i can't see the mainland.

[KitchenWitch]

7. It is cloudy and rainy here about 8 miles inland of Balboa Island.

[cbayer]

9. Damn!

Well I've got the perfect view of this which few in the country have.

This moon is coming up over the ocean and it is clear and absolutely beautiful.

A little over 1/2 covered.

6. Totally clear sky here.

Was just outside in my bathrobe and jammies watching it, but now it's gone just a tad below zero so I came back in. I'll pop back out and look again when the eclipse is complete.

[TZ]

8. Okay I was gonna avoid the jammies and robes

because of the "cold" here...23 degrees. Ocelot do you have antifreeze for blood?:crazy:

[The Velveteen Ocelot]

10. All native Minnesotans have antifreeze for blood.

We're hardy souls. Gonna run back out again, I think the eclipse is almost total now.

11. Yeah, it's snowing here.

Probably one of two reasons I'd wish it wouldn't snow. x(

[stuntcat]

12. I thought it would be to cloudy here

It's snowed today and it was so dark but I can see the eclipse. It's exciting :headbang: maybe I'll put on my shoes and try to get a video!

[TZ]

13. okay, I'm going outside to look!

Since you are down the road from me...

[stuntcat]

14. I FAILED with the video

in my camera it just looks like a white speck in a lot of black :( But looking at it I can see it's eclipsing.

[TZ]

16. I saw it!!

In fact I can sort of see it from my kitchen window. It is crystal clear outside! Looks like its about 90% eclipsed right now. Can't wait for totality!:bounce:

[stuntcat]

18. right on!

we're lucky it's all-of-a-sudden clear out. I have to watch through the window too, the low tonight's like 25 or something.

[stuntcat]

17. (at first when you look!!!)

it will just look like a half moon or something, but it looked almost full when I first looked a half hour ago and now it's a sliver.

[suninvited]

15. I saw it !!!

for a minute or two, and then the clouds came back.

[FogerRox]

19. I got

[Gonzo Gardener]

20. Oh damn...

I've been watching from my East facing office window. It's just a sliver now.

Tonights moonrise...



Edit to add...
The best pic I could take while shivering in the snow...

[DarkTirade]

21. We've just got wispy clouds here...

but they're getting in the way at the most inopportune moments.

[meow2u3]

22. Same here in PA

Just outside Philly, it was snowing

[carly denise pt deux]

23. It's going on right here now nfm

[mcscajun]

25. It was cloudy all day...and overcast a bit after moonrise here in NNJ...BUT

it cleared up in time for the near-totality, and it's beautifully crisp and clear now. Sighting a reddish Moon with Regulus and Saturn visible nearby...AWESOME!
