I'll have about 95% totality where I'm at but I think it's going to be cloudy

I'll have about 92-93% here, and it is sunny right now at 8:10am, but supposed to turn partly cloudy. I hope the forecast is wrong, my grandkids are here and we are going to a park for a watch picnic.

Supposed to be about 97%, partly cloudy. If the wife was babysitting we'd head down into Arkansas a little for 100%.
Don't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.

Seems like twilight.Supposedly, we had 91% here in MKE. Bright blue sky turned into a not-so-bright blue sky. I'm calling it a non-event, not quite a bust, but a nothing burger nonetheless.
If we were at 91% coverage, I think it's astounding how much light a mere 9% of sunshine provides.

Ordered a 6pk of plastic-framed eclipse glasses from Amazon. They were supposed to arrive Sunday. Yesterday around 4pm I got an email saying they wouldn't arrive until Tuesday. This morning I got an email saying Wednesday. I get home from work today and receive an email saying "good news! your package will arrive later today." SMH. They better not bïtch about giving me a refund.

I used my reading glasses to project the sun onto a sheet of black paper, worked great, just a fingernail clipping of sun at its maximum coverage, 91%.

Tulsa Oklahoma area, 95% totality. Not bad for phone pics10 -
We had a very similar view, @blackwidow , but we must have been on the other side of the totality line. The sliver was oriented downward, 180deg. opposite your pics.

A bit more info on eclipses. You can skip the first minute or so.
https://youtu.be/oNH3akWXaV8?feature=sharedAlso this,
During a solar eclipse, the Moon's shadow on Earth’s surface is only about 300 miles (480 km) wide. The shadow consists of two parts, the umbra, where the Sun is completely blocked, and the penumbra, where the Sun is partially obscured. People in the umbra will see a total eclipse, while people in the penumbra will see a partial eclipse. Though the shadow is narrow and the total eclipse lasts for only minutes, our planet rotates fast enough to bring the shadow a third of the way around Earth's surface before the Moon moves out of alignment with the Sun.

A Mexican television station was showing local citizens pictures of the eclipse.

Turns out this guy's nuts were blocking the light.
