Eclipse covered by community correspondents

Bruce Bradburn reports from Sun Valley, Idaho that as the eclipsed past 30 percent, bird song and presence ceased and the wind stopped completely. The temperature dropped a full 15 degrees. He reflected that “these phenomena, which may seem to be completely understandable to technologically-aware modern man had to have made the ancients most-likely terrified. However, even with current understanding, that event was no less magical and awe-inspiring.”
