Anyone going to Metal Detect Today On The Big Eclipse Day?

Dang it! Bad Storms Here! Sooo many places planned to search out there today...Even an old place just torn down for new home. But heavy rain, cloud to ground lightning & Loud Thunder + mud, mud, mud! I shouldn't have planned it! Probably can't even see the eclipse as dark & cloudy as it is.

Hope the weather breaks for you and you get a good hunt in soon!

Standing in line for free solar viewing glasses right now. Viewing is around 245 here in Ct. Skies mostly sunny. Fingers crossed.

Im going to use a welding hood to view it, should be about a 76% eclipse in my area.

Thank You...it rained & stormed pretty bad. Still raining there but suppose to start up again harder. The mud out there gets really bad with even small amounts of rain. I might abandon the old home place mud & if it doesn't storm just do some field (grassy) areas & woods. Lots of small battles around Lexington & a Big One so I suppose anywhere would have potential!

Welding hood works great! BTW. Only half a view here. Looked like it got cloudy and that s it. Saw a half of an eclipse through the welding lenses

Worked well, they said around 76% but from what I saw thru the hood it looked to be about 60% or so. It was pretty neat, last time I saw one was in 1991.

Right as the sky turned pitch black, there in the bottom of the hole was a 1933 Double Eagle...

The lighting barely changed where I was lol!

No Detecting, No Black Out or Stars like they said it would be. Lots of MUD But I Did Get To See....Wait For It.... The Solar Lights & Yard Light Come On!!! Jeez. They even closed the school district down here for that.
