Looking a bit cloudy here at the moment, and I'm just thinking that I may need my lights for the commute.

It will probably be similar to what I saw the last time, it'll get noticably duller, but not enough to make much much difference.

Sunny here too so hope to see it. Completed the Strava climbing challenge and my legs are gubbed so I thought I would go for a wee recovery spin and tootle along and maybe see it when I am out. Don't think I will need lights?? I can always stop until it is over if it does get dark.It's bright here with little cloud

Blue skies here with a whisper of haze, so fingers crossed.

[QUOTE 3599240, member: 9609"]we have some blue sky here 30% ish cloud moving quite fast so if it stays like this I should get a view.
I wonder how safe it will be to be on the bike this morning - not only will drivers be distracted in trying to look at the phenomena, but once they have glanced at it, it will be a few minutes before their eyes adjust to being able to see stuff like cyclists.[/QUOTE]
They SEE Cyclists normally??

Me too, I went to Laon in France under the central line of totality equipped with some welders glasses, it was a clear day until 20 mins before the eclipse, and was again, 20 mins after.
It was strange though, everybody was excited in a party atmosphere, but as soon as the sun went, it was total silence and oddness.I've taken the morning off work to enjoy today under a perfect West Yorks slate grey sky.
