The heavens declare the glory of God; and the firmament sheweth his handywork. (Psalms 19:1, KJV)
WEST FRANKFORT, IL – From 11:45 a.m. until 12:45 P.M I monitored the sun every few minutes. It was incredible to see the sun disappear by increments.
For the first time in all of our lifetimes, we were able to experience a total eclipse.
Again, there will be one on April 8,2024 crossing Southern Illinois
At 1:00 p.m. I was honestly surprised how much daylight there was. The wind was starting to pick up.
Over the next few minutes by 1:10 p.m. the temperature began to drop by ten degrees. The crickets started to chirp, and there was a dusk feel.
In the next ten minutes it was pitch black. I was able to take a quick shot in totality without missing the show. There was more of a spherical look than I expected. It was one of the most incredible things I have witnessed in my life.
Images like we witnessed today, scream the majesty and power of an almighty God.
