Storm clouds prevented Indy from seeing the sun. Only got dim here.

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
OK SO WHO IS WATCHING ECLIPSE OR WHO HAS A LIFE?

We are well off the path and have total cloud cover as well. We watched the two hour presentation from CBS News. Good enough for us. :yes::yes:

I agree, it must be a South of the border thing. North of the border we have a species called Jack-a-lopes. They are the off-spring of our oversized Jack-Rabbits mating with the Antelope. Their off-spring are Jack-a-lopes and can be quite delicious when stewed.

RE: Jackalope: I have a nice one mounted on the wall above the entrance to my office. Picked it from the wall of Jackalopes at Wall Drug, in Wall, SD.
Pardon all the references to Wall. :roflblack::roflblack:

UPDATE:
The Missus stood outside frying her eyeballs for the definitive shot of it:
I knew that I married her for more than her cooking skills! :thumbup:

the clouds did clear enough to see. It wasn't twilight but the light did change and it was strange. Also temp dropped and it felt weird

A non event here in the Valley of the Sun. A 63% eclipse still leaves more than enough sunlight that it isn't noticeable.

I watched it. Pretty cool. Made the sun look like devil horns and we sacrificed a snowflake intern :bowdown:

We went to Quincy to watch the eclipse and take some clothes to my wife's brother. The clouds broke enough that we had clear skies til about 20 minutes before the maximum at about 97 1/2%. Was able to see the sun through the clouds pretty well until about four minutes before the max and then the clouds totally blocked the sun after the maximum.
The quality of light is hard to explain but I was expecting it to be much darker than it was, especially given the percentage of coverage and the amount of cloud cover. The lights did come on on one of the bridges over the Mississippi river and most vehicles had their lights on. All in all, it was unusual enough that it should be memorable for at least a few years!

We rode to the top of Pikes Peak to find hundreds of people there. It was really cold and windy and there was no way I was hanging out to ride back down with all of them. Snapped a couple of pictures and got out. Didn't get dark there either.
