We got lucky and the clouds parted just in time in my corner of Texas.

Yes and no. For the clouds that we did have, yes, the eclipse was enough to affect those.

However, for the clouds that we had earlier in the day, and that had been predicted that we might have, would have been far too heavy for eclipse to effect. Unfortunately my sister up in New York ended up in that situation, where it was far too heavy a cloud cover so they didn't get to see anything. We had been predicted that we might have that, but that's the manner in which we got lucky.
