Here in Central Commiefornia, it was only about 40% coverage, but a gradual decline and incline of PV.

Well, I want my money back. Cloudy with sprinkles..... Anyone want to buy some unused solar glasses?
The darkness was cool. The total quiet was cool.

We were on the edge of totality...maybe 30-40 seconds. All six strings under 3V.
All of the other intermittency is from clouds.

Thanks! Nothing special just my old Panasonic Lumix GH2 with stock lens and ND1000 filter glass. Came out hazy probably because of clouds.
I’ll trade you mind

Barn system (20 kW of panels) was down to 160 W, is now back over 5 kW. Shed was down to 10 W (1 kW panels), now is back to 200 W. SE Michigan, 98% coverage here.
Some observations on wildlife. I live in a forest with a wetland nearby. Just before totality, frogs in the wetland started to croak. Bats from tge forest began to fly and a Barred owl hooted. My chickens hid under solar panels until my family came out and they stood next to us. No wind, deathly quite (except for the frogs, bats and owl), and an odd stillness through the forest until the moon passed. Pretty cool stuff.
Didn't get total here, SE Mich. It got a little dimmer. I have the panels on a solar tracker, as it got close to the darkest it was gonna get, the tracker went into nite mode. About 20 or so mins later it found the sun again. We did have nice clear skies tho.
