    Watched it from the beach. The sky looked really cool. I started noticing the inside of the house getting darker before it happened. Kinda looked like what the inside of your house looks like when there's about to be an ugly thunderstorm, but that was only from inside. From the outside, it looked like how it does when it's real hazy out, but the sun is still out.

    Kind of hard to explain.

    I thought it was pretty cool. I noticed that it wasn't the normal brightness outside even though it was sunny. Like when they shoot a movie in daylight and then darken it to make it look like it's night time. My wife brought home some old x-ray film from work that was super dark and we were able to view it through that. Glad I got to witness it anyway.

    My wife had glasses that were provided at her office I guess and she sent me pics she took through the glasses.

    I first noticed it when it got dark in the house. I went outside and the bugs were chirping like nighttime. The best part was my cats were rolling around on the front lawn for some reason.

    Yeah, same thing happened here. It didn't get dark or anything, just had the look indoors of what it looks like when a big storm sends dark clouds into the sky and basically has the sun covered. It wasn't dark outside though. Kind of a weird sky color.
