Won't be seeing anything here is New Mexico, overcast with thunderstorms.

 If you can't see them, maybe you'll get a few bigger chunks that you can go outside and catch. Since it is a first time event, don't give up just yet, the sky may be falling!

 

P.S. You might want to wear a hat, just in case......or if you prefer to watch from indoors........ http://live.slooh.com/

I'm hoping the clouds continue to break up. It'll be a first! Also...I'm hoping I can stay up that long. Lol

Just think boogey man under the bed and use matchsticks to prop up your eyelids... should do the trick until it's all over.
