Was supposed to travel there but had to cancel last minute due to illness- admittedly am feeling slightly less bad about missing it now. Family said it was still cool but not amazing.

I’m in north central Ohio, about an hour’s drive SW of Cleveland and it was supposed to be partially cloudy here, but there were barely any clouds at all, none obscuring our view, and it was sunny and almost 70. We could really feel the temperature drop during totality.

Perfect view of the corona and a Baily bead just southwest of Cleveland! Clouds were predicted but it was mostly clear and warm (though it got chilly during the eclipse itself).

Overall and especially in recent years Cleveland's weather has been so much better than its reputation dictates. Climate change? Not sure but something is working out for Cleveland weather.

It’s climate change and an El Niño winter. The entire Midwest was warmer and less snowy than usual this year.

We went to a state campground about an hour northwest of Columbus. The sky was clear and the temperature was a little over 70. Absolutely stunning views of the total eclipse.

Vermont was amazing.

Maine was supposed to have been great also.

Glad to hear it. I attended Oberlin and it was indeed often quite cloudy. Glad the campus community got a great view.

Another who was in Cleveland yesterday. I was nervous waking up to so many clouds but it all worked out beautifully. Except for the traffic coming home! But, it was so so worth it.

It was amazing!!!! We were with our child who is an undergraduate at Case Western. Ended up taking us 8 hours to get home from Cleveland. Worth the traffic 😁.

We had a totally amazing experience in northern NY and I think I've become an eclipse chaser after experiencing totality!

Same. We're already looking into heading to Egypt in a few years. Seeing an eclipse over the pyramids would be amazing
