At 98.6%, the eclipse was a big nothing-burger as well. Not nearly as dark as it gets with a big mid-western thunderstorm. It got much darker when the heart of the Mount St. Helen’s ash plume passed over my town in Northern Idaho in 1980.

Even here on the Central Oregon Coast, it didn’t get totally dark - more like late dusk, with the sky and the air around us turning a strange color. It did chill down for a few minutes. Still an awesome event.
