Too cloudy here. We were right in the path of totality. All I could get were a few glimpses at a quarter coverage and about 1 second at total coverage. Then nothing but clouds. One thing I noticed is with the glasses on the sun looked about 10 times smaller. I didn’t use them for that 1 second glimpse of totality. They seemed to say you didn’t need them then anyway.
Saw it here in NW Mass while out on a hike with my dogs...about 97% of totality. One thing that occurred that I was not expecting was a very noticeable drop in temperature. We've still got partial snow on the ground and before the eclipse I was a little warm. At the peak of the eclipse I wished that I had brought another layer.
Couple hundred miles north of the pathway, but I looked at it thru the welding helmet for a while. Hope that's ok, kinda have a headache now. I'd say it was 75% covered. The birds went nuts thinking it was twilight.

We were in the path of near totality. The schools around here all had a 1/2 day. Unfortunately it was to cloudy and we caught a few seconds here and there as the clouds rolled through.
I just happened to be turkey hunting my place I southern illinois. I got a few pics and will upload when I get out of the bush. I was also working out side and got goosebumps because of the temp change.
