I live along the path of totality and the skies parted for it. It was incredible. I thought it was no big deal before but I was wrong, seeing a full eclipse v partial are totally different experiences.
The temperature immediately drops, all the birds get quiet, it feels like the world stops. The light is dark and silver colored. The sun was so eclipsed the glasses didn't work and we took them off and you could see it with your bare eyes for about 3-4 minutes, my phone screen feels brighter. It was a giant black sphere hovering over us. Really incredible.
