Maps of the 2024 Solar Eclipse: Path of Totality, Peak Times, and Visibility Across the United States

Get ready for an astronomical event of a lifetime as a total solar eclipse is set to cross North America on April 8, 2024. This rare celestial phenomenon will be visible in parts of 15 U.S. states, with maps showing the exact path and timing for eager astronomy fans.

Starting along Mexico’s Pacific Coast at 11:07 a.m. PDT, the eclipse will then make its way across the U.S., spanning from Texas to Maine, and even reaching into Canada. A total of 31.6 million people reside in the path of totality, where the moon will completely block out the sun, in an area ranging between 108 and 122 miles wide. Additionally, an additional 150 million people live within 200 miles of the path of totality.

The path of totality includes states like Texas, Arkansas, Indiana, Ohio, New York, and Vermont, with small parts of Tennessee and Michigan also experiencing the total solar eclipse. Major cities like San Antonio, Austin, Dallas, Indianapolis, and Cleveland will be within the eclipse’s path, offering prime viewing opportunities if the weather cooperates.

For those outside the path of totality, a partial eclipse will still be visible, with NASA providing a tool to input your ZIP code and see how much of the sun will be covered in your location. So mark your calendars for this spectacular event and get ready to witness the magic of a total solar eclipse in 2024.
