Summer is the worst season here for real.......sister in Roseville CA was complaining how it was 108/55 and I was like "please.....I'd cut my arm off for that".......lol.....fools don't understand that dry heat comes with cool nights cuz the damn dew lets it cool off....fuck this east coast shit......summer sucks

Can July be over please.....this shit is getting annoying AF....

the core of the wind sig on radar is south of randolph......

It seemed to have the classic look and long track and impact you would expect - though I don't actually know what the textbook definition is......

That was cool….lots of lightning but no close strikes….rain was crazy….wind too….flickered a couple times….derecho?

Wonder where that is.....we're in WH...maybe Hall HS parking lot?

Getting reports from a friend and daughters boyfriends mom of gum ball and ping pong ball size hail around Glastonbury - that’s nuts

Cell over Bethlehem needs a TOR

Is that a 102 over my fanny? Walnut Creek CA says hold my beer lol……

Totally the same experience for us in Irving…..we were trying to get east of Dallas but I kept seeing that cu field getting closer so I bailed in Irving and camped out in a vacant parking lot…..we only had some annoying stray clouds right before - like 30 seconds - totality….and then poof….it disappeared right before went total…..just as amazing as 2017 but better with the lack of clouds and twice as long…..

Shadow bands…..we saw them too in Dallas…..

Wow wow wow enjoy guys further northeast that was amazing full corona Jupiter

Can totally feel it

Shadow bands!!! Fuck a duck

Oh shit Dallas!!!!

Oof - we’re scheduled to fly out 10:30 tonight to Reno…..hopefully we get good eyes on eclipse…..

Happy chasing everyone…..halfway to Dallas now…..cutting it close…..trying to get to park about half an hour outside DFW…..had to move flight to next one out of LaGuardia

Dallas is still in play

I'm sticking with TX and will see whats what.....climo will save us in the end right? lol Enjoy your eclipse - its the only eclipse you got......

That is a cool site….definitely bookmarked….

Gonna need to keep building that ridge eastern half of country.....I am so nervous with my plans for Dallas.....

Also it’s embarrassing the airfare gouging happening…..not cool

Initially flying in Monday morning was the only option but our plans changed and now the change of flights would be way too expensive…..the logistics of trying to chase this thing and get to Reno later are a lot….I’ll be regrouping tomorrow….man

What is your reroute plan if you needed to? We are flying into Dallas and landing at 9:00ish that morning and getting a rental car….we’d have about 3 hours to get rental and go to a target but that’s only gonna buy us like 100 miles radius tops, which if there’s significant clouds won’t work probably…..I’m getting nervous for sure….we spent way too much dough on the flight and it’s part of a larger vacation where we leave Dallas that night to Reno for snowboard vacation in Tahoe….the logistics are a nightmare….. Were you prepared to fly elsewhere or get in earlier and drive further?

Don't trust these cloud cover maps too much......gonna have to wait until middle of next week to really get a feel for where we stand......the cloud cover maps are typically way overdone......
