Total Solar Eclipse 2024: Interactive Map Released
Visible Across the United States
On April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse will sweep across the United States, casting a shadow over parts of Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Missouri. An interactive map released by NASA shows the path of the eclipse, along with local times and average cloud cover.
Partial Eclipse for All
While the total eclipse will only be visible along a narrow path, the entire United States will experience a partial solar eclipse. This means that viewers across the country will see the moon pass in front of the sun, but it will not completely obscure it.
Plan Your Viewing
If you're hoping to witness the total solar eclipse, be sure to plan your trip carefully. The eclipse will reach totality in different locations at different times. The interactive map provides local times and cloud cover estimates to help you choose the best viewing spot.
NASA Updates Path
The interactive map was updated by NASA on March 8, 2023, based on the latest predictions. The path of the eclipse may change slightly over time, so it's important to check the map closer to the event for the most up-to-date information.
