I've checked the satellite images from yesterday morning, as well as meteostations' reports, and I can tell you that most of the areas with the greatest eclipse magnitude - NE Sweden (Lulea), Finland, NW Russia (St.Petersburg, Pskov, Tver', Vologda) have been clouded out with pretty much of snow falling, and only some people had luck to see the Sun through the thick clouds.

P.S. Next partial eclipse of June 1st would be fun: in Murmansk (Russia) the eclipsed Sun (60%) would be at 2° above the northern horizon just after the local midnight. Grin
