The great North American solar eclipse<\/a> will darken the US, Canada and Mexico on April 8th, as you\u2019ve no doubt heard. It\u2019s a significant astronomical event, the first since August 21, 2017 and the last one that will be visible on the continent until 2044.<\/p>\n

Parts of all three countries will experience \u201ctotality\u201d or a full blocking of the sun by the moon. Those lucky folks may even see the sun\u2019s corona and a \u201cdiamond ring\u201d \u2014 both rare and dramatic sights. Other regions will experience partial eclipses, with the level depending on how close you are to totality. Watching the moon eat into the sun, even a bit, is still a spectacular sight.<\/p>\n

So, which cities and regions will experience totality? When will it happen? What\u2019s the weather forecast in those areas? And if you do have a clear view, how can you safely watch and record the event? Read on to find out more.<\/p>\n

Where in the US will you experience the solar eclipse totality, and when?<\/h2>\n
