The weather was gloomy, but as the eclipse progressed, the darkening sky was definitely NOT due to the weather. Unmistakably, the world was getting darker and darker.
As gaps appeared in the clouds and we caught glimpses of the Sun, the excitement and anticipation grew.
Even in less than the best weather conditions, the longest eclipse of the 21st century was an awesome sight. An experience one should not miss.
