100% true.

After the absolute blessing of visiting the path of totality in 2017, I’ll just head outside for a moment today (~11:14am, California) to look at shadows cast by a tree’s leaves… but not expecting much of anything at all.

2017? Shouted at the sky. Folks next to us were crying.

I too live in CA, and i saw nothing. It was bright as fuck, blue skies, and it didnt even get dimmer or anything.

Best place to look was at the ground, they said. I did see neat shadows!
