In case you've missed it from other sources. The eclipse's peak will be at 9:30CST, and end around 11PM CST.

Pretty darn cool! My Dad called me...I hadn't heard a THING about it. When's the next solar eclipse? <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

OVC here right now. Hopefully a few more clouds will move out. Upside is that we had a really nice Aurora with the moonlight last night. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />

I just took my two oldest boys outside to see it. They were impressed for about 45 seconds, then asked to go back inside <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />

Clear night here. Cool redish color.
I just want to tell you both good luck, and we're all counting on you.

I caught a glimpse of it through the clouds. Nice redish moon.

Went out with the wife to a new s/d with no street lights and watched from about 30% to totality. Only light broken clouds here. Very nice eclipse. Must not have been made in Normal...
Good ruddy ember color on this one. Must have lots of dust in the atmo. Could see Saturn's rings with 16x zoom binocs, and Regulus was a nice blue...
Not responsible for advice not taken...

Got lucky; got to see a bit of it between cloud layers during moonrise. Could make out Regulus w/o binoculars. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/kewl.gif" alt="" />
