Solar eclipse 2017: How much did the temperature change during the eclipse? (non-FR; 8.22.17)
Also, is it any surprise that nighttime temperatures typically keep dropping in various places until sunrise?
Corrections, insights welcome.
A few years ago there was a total midday solar eclipse about 55 miles from my home. Not wanting to sit in traffic, I witnessed a 99% eclipse from my backyard. The temperature drop was absolutely AMAZING.
Temps continue to drop until a bit after sunrise, all else being equal. Terrain and proximity to large bodies of water are big determining factors, as well.
