Completely clear sky here. The kiddo and I set outside for a little over an hour in lawn chairs in the dark and in silence except for a little chit chat. Among other things she wants me to go to the library and find her a nice book on the history of philosophy and a synopsis of the major philosophies. She either thinks the school library doesn't have such a thing or she doesn't want her classmates to know what she's reading. She also got a couple of pretty good photos of the eclipse with her phone camera which I found impressive.
Ok, it was full shit weather today in the PNW. So bad. Pouring. Zero cloud breaks. Then a few minutes ago there was a break. It’s really yanking me around now. I don’t want to hope but can’t help myself.
view to the west a few minutes ago
View to the east. Which what the sky was like all day except zero blue.
So I still have chance. A little over an hour until it starts, 3 hours after that to maybe get a peek. Still hopeful.
The weather in the Puget Sound region of WA turned out better today than predicted. I now have my hopes up for tomorrow. Stupid but I can’t help myself. This was driving home tonight so excuse the “comet” reflecting off of some other car. Really hoping tomorrow is as good as this.

Was able to get One decent picture with My Crappy Phone. Right as it it hit mid Eclipse. Clouds kept me from seeing it at full. Damn NM weather.
Onset of May Gray here with scattered stratus and not one, but TWO backyard neighbors barbecuing with oceans of smoke. 😐

So my weather app says no clouds where I am.
Going to be cloudy where I am. I’ve already mourned and moved on. I’ve missed a fuckton of cool shit due to WA weather.
