Usually it's

TONIGHT: some event in six hours! - 17h ago

I deeply relate and also feel personally attacked haha

This is the Pacific Northwest described in 6 panels. Well done.

August 1999. The last total solar eclipse visible from the UK was 72 years ago, and the next one would be 91 years later. Young Ted woke up to a gloriously sunny day. This would be it!

An hour before the event we drove out to a nice remote viewing spot with minimal obstructions for miles around. 30 minutes to go, the clouds rolled in. Thick, blanket cloud from horizon to horizon. The eclipse happened. From under the cloud it got a bit darker and the birds had a bit of a freak out but it was otherwise a non-event. We drove back home, disappointed.

30 minutes later the clouds cleared and the rest of the day was as glorious as the morning had been. 27 years later I'm still bitter about it. Seattle's got nothing on us!

ITT: People being mad at Seattle.

Fucking Seattle.

I live in the sunniest part of Germany. Still happens.

There’s an interesting phenomena that happens when there’s a solar eclipse, the clouds clear out shortly before the eclipse begins.

Not sure if it’s consistent or why that happens at all, but that was my experience with it during the last eclipse.

This is me now that birds are migrating back. I want to get up early for golden hour photos but it's always cloudy until the sun has been up for a few hours. One of these days I'll get lucky.

Yeah; sadly.

I came to this thread to talk about my area and I see I've already been beat lol

I'm also in the PNW

I've missed so much cool stuff because of clouds lol

Ugh, my entire life in Washington State

Anyone else here from Scotland? 😅🌫️

This is exactly what happens in ukraine.

I've been screwed by the pnw about this, but it's been no worse than fucking ohio.
