Tracking the temperature drop during the eclipse with Home Assistant!
I've got a weather station outside and I use this add on to bring it into HA. We only had 79.8% coverage during the eclipse, but there was a noticeable drop in temperature!

Full totality here on a mostly cloudy day. We did get a few peeks of the sun, but mostly it just got dark and cold for 3 minutes.
We got only 90.5% coverage but my graph also looks great
Oh that's such an awesome graph!
Ooo ya, here was ours (in the shade of the house the whole time).
That's a fantastic graph!
Does humidity increase with drop in temperature?
It's a weird thing I've noticed here in the northeast: there's a correlation between the two to a degree I've never seen before.
That or the humidity sensor is borked lol

The measurement of percent humidity is dependent on temperature - cold air can hold less moisture. For the same moisture content, the lower temperature will have a higher percentage of its capacity. If you want a measure that is independent of temperature, look into something like Dew Point.
Okay superb. Thank you :)
It took a bite out of solar, too!
Just a note to people posting these cool graphs that it does give away your rough location. As long as you're cool with that (pun intended).
About 77% where I am
