I've allso complied similar stats (in my case, its the probability of
skies 20%-cloud-covered or clearer) here:

why my numbers are different.
I suggest people also read Jan Anderson (famous weather-for-eclipses

I'd use all climate-data maps only for rough planning. I think the key
is to be prepared to drive a few hours, just before the eclipse, to a
clear-sky spot shown on a satellite image. (This forecasting stuff is
just a guess.)The satellite image I like is this one for the Ontario
area:

because it's the only cloud-image that also shows fog. In practise,
i've seen the "day night micro combo image" show more fine cloud
detail that other satellite images. There are such maps covering
USA/Canada in pieces.
I've linked one of those maps, along with a circle marking the exact
spot, from each clear sky chart that is along the path of totality.
