Maps of Solar Eclipses from 2020 to 2024

The second Great American Eclipse of April 8, 2024 was seen by considerably more Americans than 2017 because the path of totality crossed more heavily populated regions and the path was also nearly twice as wide.

Before the eclipse, it was expected that weather prospects were best in Texas with cloud cover increasing as the Moon’s shadow progressed to the northeast. Weather on eclipse day was largely the opposite! Much of Texas was cloudy and much of the American northeast was clear.

The next total solar eclipse over North America comes to Alaska on March 30, 2033. In August 23, 2044, totality visits northwest United States and western Canada. A long duration eclipse crosses the United States from California to Florida on August 12, 2045.
