They are truly awe inspiring and I can see why eclipse chasers do it. Everyone should see one if they possibly can.
I traveled from the Chicago suburbs to Kansas City to see the '17 eclipse. Clouds kicked in about 5 minutes before totality but I got to see the darkness fall, cicadas started up, etc.
This time I stayed home. They'd been saying we were to get 94% coverage, but my shadowbox images don't appear to show anything near that -- more like maybe 70% at most. I could see the character of the sunlight got kind of gray, but that was it.
One of the local TV weathermen went to the center of the track, and was literally in tears on the air. I thought it was neat but not neat enough to create emotional turmoil. Granted I didn't experience totality.
