    It cleared here for a while, but the rain came back, now its gone, but the wind is picking up really strong. maybe it will blow the clouds out.

    last night the moon was so bright here also. but its so warm here now that its bringing rain.

    right now we can see the moon behind the clouds,, they seem to be really thin.

    I plan on looking tonight but as kaseylib said it is suppose to get mighty cold tonight in Wisconsin. I think they said this might be one of the coldest...so I will bundle up and take a peak...I most likely won't be out long...

    :-D

    I hope to see some pictures of it. We can't see the moon through the trees here in the woods. I did see one years ago that was absolutely breathtaking, very mystical.

    Gosh I was hoping to catch a glimpse. Alas - no cloud cover spoilt it for me , but a fire in a squatter camp not too far away. This happens every year (the fires) due to the negligence of some people when burning candles.
    I hope someone got too see the eclipse.

    The clouds and fog were too thick to see the eclipse. Darn.

    It was cool, crisp, and clear here. My husband and I (and our two dogs) went out for a few minutes before, during, and after the eclipse. I tried to take some pics, but they didn't turn out. It was pretty neat!
