This evening was a departing system sunset. Everything as eroding from the top down and not quite as much west to east. The clouds were really hauling also. And my mania for trying to get the colors right, I did not have the camera set to stun. So the blurry clouds are all on me. Taken with the 24-70mm at 44mm...

Ha! At KPSP when it hit 100 the dew was 36 for a relative humidity of 11% and a heat index of only 95. Too funny.

Only 34 at KIND. Not quite as hard on sensitive vegetation.

Looks like the bow will be south of I-70 and indianapolis. That is fine by me. Southern Indiana can keep all the severe stuff. No skin off of my nose.

Idk if I'm just dumb but I don't have any issue with LOT's radar on radarscope
The radar is fine, I am talking about the time series viewer through the NWS and NOAA. I just checked KEWR and they have been only updating hourly also. Must be a system wide thing. Just wonder if it is accidental or on purpose?

These are from last night.
Pre-sunset. Nothing special. Taken with the 100mm and cropped in the camera...
Was wondering if the Sun would be able to round the corner and give some nice post sunset color. Glad I stuck around as here is the red starting to hit the area. Taken with the 100mm...
As the red was departing the area. Taken with the 100mm and cropped in the camera...
Cheers!

Can anyone tell me why KIND and KLOT suddenly stopped updating every five minutes and went to just updating every hour since one this afternoon. Is it just a western region thing or all over?

82 at KIND today. Low 80's in the third week of April is nothing special. Low 80's in Northeast surface flow is sort of notable.

Was out for the sunrise this morning. My usual morning spot with open eastern views, the county fairgrounds, had a dog show this weekend and a dog run set up where I usually set up. So I had to head to a different spot. Tried the southside park. Have never tried a sunset there yet dso this was a first. Also I forgot the 24-70mm at home on the table so I had to make do with the 16-35mm.
THe reds. Taken with the 16-35mm at 35mm...
Transitioning to the oranges. Taken with the 16-35mm at 35mm...
I had forgotten about how good the 16-35 was at making diffraction spikes due to its aperture construction. Always adds a little pop to an image. Taken with the 16-35mm at 35mm...
Cheers!

So far 1.74" IMBY. Looks like might add a little bit more here in a little bit. On the drive home from work, all the agriculture ditches were full and the usual problem fields had the duck ponds full and waiting on traffic. Could use a little dry time to soak some of this moisture into the ground good and deep.
I did add more. Three day total of 2.12". THhat means another 0.38'" last night and today. On the drive home today, most of the temporary duck ponds are transitioning to mud bogs, in the improving conditions.

I would deal with 12 hours of traffic to experience totality again. Nothing compares to it. Not even 99.9%. I've traveled and hiked all over the world and I was completely blown away. Already making plans for Spain in 2026
21 minutes ago, TheNiño said:Seriously, I didn’t understand why 100% would be so much of a difference compared to 99%. But having now experienced it, I get it. Like you, I would literally travel abroad to see it again. Incredible experience.
The difference between the annular eclipse in 1994 and Monday's total eclipse was night and day; literally. There is something special when all of the Sun is covered with the Moon. While I am not going to go out of my way to see more, I am extremely grateful that I can cross this off of my bucket list and now have the ability to say I have seen and experienced totality at least once in my life.

visible looks good, shame about the miss south, should have made plans
Should have. Already the north side park is inundated with Illinois plated cars. I am being invaded. But that is OK. Anything in the name of looking to the heavens!

I bet your chickens would flip your pros and cons.

Three day total of 2.47" IMBY. Radar estimates show a county or two south and west easily doubled that. We needed every drop here. But over double that would probably be a tad excessive.

After a day of being around a frontal boundary and all the clouds that entails, Around sunset, the clouds took a hike rapidly.
Taken with the 24-70mm at 61mm...
