Despite the fact i'll be at work, i'll hopefully be able to follow it.

Unfortunately the moon will start to set 40min after the start of totality and we have morning twilight to contend with as well.

The moon will be pretty low but you never know ; there may be some interesting photo opportunities to be had.

Totality around midnight for me. I'm hoping to image it but is going to make for a rough day at work Monday. I go in at 4am.

What could possibly go wrong 🙂  Going to be a tough one i think, up at 3am, Moon very low on the horizon, cloudy forecast, getting light as well.  I will definitely be giving it a go though. 

Looking forward to seeing what everyone manages, hopefully some of us will escape the clouds/rain. 🙂

Nothing  like  a   good challenge  though 😅.

Too low from my garden unfortunately, first shadow contact is only 9 degrees. Worsening soon after.

Unfortunately we had 100% cloud cover....it was a write off for me.
