Good move. I was planning to do something like that but the cloud forecast had us change our plans

Nice.

Glad to here that. The diamond ring, when the sun just made its return appearance, was phenomenal.

Spent Sunday and Monday upstate NY and Vermont, watching eclipse. Different world up there. Still snow on the ground in many areas and very little if any in the way of spring foliage. In the higher elevations going from Plattsburgh to Newport Vt. some areas had, what looked to be, about a foot of snow on the ground.

It took me 2 hours to go about 5 miles from where we saw the eclipse to the highway. I figured it would take about 2 hours to get out. I did not figure the entire length of route 91 to be so bad with traffic.

I was in downtown Newport area, near the high school. Nice park right on the lake. I was a little concerned about places like Walmart. I was concerned their lights would come on during totality. Hope that did not happen.

Went to Albany Sunday and from there planned to go to Plattsburgh. Do to the cloud forecast ended up in Newport Vt. also. The trip from Plattsburgh to Newport was great, little traffic and lots of snow. The eclipse was great, my second total. So worth seeing at least once. The trip back home from Newport was possibly the worse I have ever seen. Vermont cannot handle that volume of traffic. Route 91 leaves few alternative routes and not to many exits. The first 45 miles took 31/2 hours. Got home 13 hours later, close to 5a.m.

I think I felt an aftershock

Now we start hearing about the eclipse and the earthquake and the theories as to what it means so close together.

4.8 just northeast of Lebanon NJ

I felt it olso

Add to that, this is the second year in a row that the Sierras have had above normal snowfall, first time in some 20 plus years.

Northern New England ski areas having great early spring. Many have had more snow in March and April than the 3 winter months combined.

Snowing again in the Catskills and northern half of New England. https://www.huntermtn.com/the-mountain/mountain-conditions/mountain-cams.aspx

Yea only 35mph here. Seems like our area really missed the worst of the storm. However, did get a little over 2 inches of rain.
