    Our weather forecast has changed to fog in the morning, not burning off until 11. Boo hiss!

    I watched, in Seattle! The most interesting thing was that the sun-dappled shadows cast by tree leaves all became crescent-shaped; the leaves apparently acting like pinhole cameras. I had not expected that. And it got noticeably colder.

    Hi,
    That is what I expected since the partial in 1999. What I got was NOTHING not even going a little dark.

    Again.....I was suggesting people look for something under/from trees but wanted it to be a surprise for those who didn't know. :)

    I knew what you were talking about when you first made the suggestion, but neither All Fakes nor I spoiled the surprise. By the time he posted the picture, the whole thing was over - even in South Carolina. ;)

    I was just trying to make it clear that that is what I wanted people to see. :)

    A good hint! I hadn't read it before going out to view the eclipse (or posting), so I was totally surprised.
