A total solar eclipse took place on April 8, 2024, visible across North America and dubbed the Great North American Eclipse by some media.[1][2][3] A solar eclipse occurs when the Moon passes between Earth and the Sun, thereby obscuring the image of the Sun for a viewer on Earth. A total solar eclipse occurs when the Moon's apparent diameter is larger than the Sun's, blocking all direct sunlight, turning day into darkness. Totality occurs only in a narrow path across Earth's surface, with the partial solar eclipse visible over a surrounding region thousands of kilometers wide.

One day after perigee on April 7, 2024, the Moon's apparent diameter will be 5.5% larger than average. With a magnitude of 1.0566, the eclipse's longest duration of totality will be of 4 minutes and 28.13 seconds about 4 mi (6 km) north of the Mexican town of Nazas, Durango.

This eclipse will be the first total solar eclipse visible in Canada since February 26, 1979[4][5]; the first in Mexico since July 11, 1991[6]; and the first in the United States since August 21, 2017. It will be the only total solar eclipse in the 21st century where totality will be visible in all three countries.[7] It will be the last total solar eclipse visible in the contiguous United States until August 23, 2044.

The final solar eclipse of the year will occur on October 2, 2024.

Visibility

Animation of the eclipse path (including the path of totality)

The totality of the solar eclipse will be visible in a narrow strip on the Pacific Ocean passing 230 miles (370 km) north of the Marquesas Islands and later in North America, beginning at the Pacific coast, then ascending in a northeasterly direction through Mexico, the United States, and Canada, before ending in the Atlantic Ocean.[8]

Mexico

In Mexico, totality will pass through the states of Sinaloa (including Mazatlán), Durango (including the city of Durango and Gómez Palacio) and Coahuila (including Torreón, Matamoros, Monclova, Sabinas, Ciudad Acuña and Piedras Negras).[9][10][11]

United States

In the United States, totality will be visible through the states of Texas (including parts of San Antonio, Austin, and Fort Worth and all of Arlington, Dallas, Killeen, Temple, Texarkana, Tyler, Sulphur Springs and Waco), Oklahoma (including Idabel and Broken Bow), Arkansas (including Morrilton/Petit Jean, Hot Springs, Searcy, Jonesboro, and Little Rock), Missouri (including Cape Girardeau and Poplar Bluff), Tennessee (extreme northwestern corner of Lake County), Illinois (including Carbondale, where it intersects the path of the 2017 eclipse), Kentucky, Indiana (including Bloomington, Evansville, Indianapolis, Anderson, Muncie, Terre Haute, and Vincennes), Ohio (including Akron, Cleveland, Dayton, Lima, Lorain, Toledo, and Warren), Michigan (extreme southeastern corner of Monroe County), Pennsylvania (including Erie), New York (including Buffalo, Niagara Falls, Rochester, Syracuse, Watertown, the Adirondacks, Potsdam, and Plattsburgh), Vermont (including Burlington), New Hampshire, and Maine[12][13] (including the peak of Mount Katahdin, the state's highest point). The largest city that will be entirely in the path is Dallas, Texas.[14] It will be the second total eclipse visible from the central United States in just seven years, after the eclipse of August 21, 2017. This will be the last total solar eclipse visible in the contiguous United States until August 23, 2044.[15]

A partial solar eclipse will be visible in all of the other parts of the contiguous United States and in Southeast Alaska (Alaska Panhandle).

Canada

In Canada, the path of totality will pass over parts of Southern and Eastern Ontario (including Leamington, Fort Erie,[16] Hamilton, Niagara Falls, Kingston, Prince Edward County, and Cornwall),[17] parts of southern Quebec (including Montreal, Sherbrooke, Saint-Georges and Lac-Mégantic), central New Brunswick (including Fredericton, Woodstock and Miramichi),[18] western Prince Edward Island (including Tignish and Summerside),[19][20] the northern tip of Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia,[21] and central Newfoundland (including Gander and Grand Falls-Windsor). Then, it will vanish on the eastern Atlantic coast of Newfoundland.[22] Some of the Canadian cities listed, such as Hamilton and Montreal, are on an edge of the path of totality. Windsor, London, Toronto and Ottawa lie just north of the path of totality, and Moncton lies just south of it.

A partial solar eclipse will be visible in all of the other parts of Canada, except the western part of Yukon and the western tip of the Northwest Territories.

Europe

The eclipse will be partially seen in Svalbard (Norway), Iceland, Ireland, western parts of Great Britain, north-west parts of Spain and Portugal, the Azores and the Canary Islands.[23] Unusually, this eclipse extends below the horizon, where the greatest phase is to be observed at mid-nautical twilight in Galicia (Spain) and the beginning of astronomical twilight in Nouvelle-Aquitaine (France).[24] The extension of the eclipse path within the twilight zone will create probably the best observation window for the 12P/Pons-Brooks comet located closely to Jupiter.[25]

Central America and South America

The eclipse will be partially seen in all Central American countries, from Belize to Panama, all the Greater Antilles (Cuba, Dominican Republic, Haiti, Puerto Rico and Jamaica), and northern South America (Colombia).

Oceania

The eclipse will be partially seen in Hawaii, eastern Kiribati (the eastern Phoenix Islands and the whole Line Islands), Tokelau, American Samoa except for its extreme western part, the Cook Islands, French Polynesia and the Pitcairn Islands. Although all located east of the 180th meridian, the local time of the partial eclipse in Kiribati and Tokelau is Tuesday, April 9, 2024, because either UTC+13 or UTC+14 is observed in these areas.

Cloud-cover prospects along the path

April is a month of changeable weather along the eclipse path. The weather in Mexico and the southern United States includes afternoon convective buildups, whereas the northern regions are still in late winter and early spring weather, with passing low-pressure disturbances (e.g., rain, snow). Of these disturbances, eclipse-day cloud cover is most likely, unless severe storms are present across the south or spring storms with blizzard-like conditions are passing in the north. The lowest average cloud coverage occurs in the south, particularly in Mexico, whereas the highest amounts of coverage crop up in the northeastern United States and Canada.[26]

Delta Air Lines has scheduled a special eclipse-following flight from Austin to Detroit on a large-window A220-300, and various other flights in the path of totality will also avoid cloud cover entirely.[27]

Reactions

Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders preemptively declared a state of emergency related to the eclipse, citing the expected increase of travel to the state which may potentially result in transportation difficulties.[28]

The region surrounding Niagara Falls, Ontario, also declared a state of emergency; as an existing major tourist destination along the path of totality, it expected an influx of at least one million visitors on April 8.[29]

Google introduced a blog with a quiz related to this event[30] and a new animation about the eclipse upon searching key words relating to the eclipse event on its search engine.[31]

The eclipse is a member of a semester series. An eclipse in a semester series of solar eclipses repeats approximately every 177 days and 4 hours (a semester) at alternating nodes of the Moon's orbit.[32] It is also part of saros series 139, repeating every 18 years, 11 days, 8 hours, containing 71 events, and part of a tritos cycle, repeating at alternating nodes every 135 synodic months (≈ 3986.63 days, or 11 years minus 1 month).

The path of the April 8, 2024, eclipse will cross the path of the prior total solar eclipse of August 21, 2017, with the intersection of the two paths being in southern Illinois, in Makanda, just south of Carbondale.[33] The cities of Benton, Carbondale, Chester, Harrisburg, Marion, and Metropolis in Illinois; Cape Girardeau, Farmington, and Perryville in Missouri, as well as Paducah, Kentucky, will be within a roughly 9,000-square-mile (23,000 km2) intersection of the paths of totality of both the 2017 and 2024 eclipses.
