Solar eclipse maps show 2024 totality path, peak times and how much of the eclipse people could see across the U.S.

By Aliza Chasan

Updated on: April 9, 2024 / 5:00 AM EDT / CBS News

A total solar eclipse  crossed North America Monday with parts of 15 U.S. states within the path of totality. Maps show  where and when astronomy fans could see the big event  as skies darkened in the middle of the day Monday, April 8.

The total eclipse first appeared along Mexico's Pacific Coast at around 11:07 a.m. PDT, then traveled across a swath of the U.S., from Texas to Maine, and into Canada.

About 31.6 million people live in the path of totality , the area where the moon fully blocked out the sun , according to NASA. The path ranged between 108 and 122 miles wide. An additional 150 million people live within 200 miles of the path of totality.

Solar eclipse path of totality map for 2024

The total solar eclipse started over the Pacific Ocean, and the first location in continental North America that experienced totality was Mexico's Pacific Coast, around 11:07 a.m. PDT, according to NASA. From there, the path continued into Texas, crossing more than a dozen states before the eclipse enters Canada in southern Ontario. The eclipse exited continental North America at around 5:16 p.m. NDT from Newfoundland, Canada.

The path of totality included portions of the following states:

• Pennsylvania
• New Hampshire

Small parts of Tennessee and Michigan also experienced the total solar eclipse.

Several major cities across the U.S. were included in the eclipse's path of totality, while many others saw a partial eclipse. These were some of the best major cities for eclipse viewing — though the weather was a factor :

• San Antonio, Texas (partially under the path)
• Austin, Texas
• Waco, Texas
• Dallas, Texas
• Little Rock, Arkansas
• Indianapolis, Indiana
• Dayton, Ohio
• Cleveland, Ohio
• Buffalo, New York
• Rochester, New York
• Syracuse, New York
• Burlington, Vermont

Map of when the solar eclipse reached totality across its path

The eclipse began in the U.S. as a partial eclipse beginning at 12:06 p.m. CDT near Eagle Pass, Texas, before progressing to totality by about 1:27 p.m. CDT and then moving along its path to the northeast over the following few hours.

NASA shared times for several cities in the path of totality across the U.S. People could have also  checked their ZIP code on NASA's map  to see when the eclipse was to reach them if they were on, or near, the path of totality — or if they saw a partial eclipse instead.

How much of the eclipse did people see if they live outside the totality path?

While the April 8 eclipse covered a wide swath of the U.S., outside the path of totality observers may have spotted a partial eclipse, where the moon covers some, but not all, of the sun, according to NASA. The closer they were to the path of totality, the larger the portion of the sun that was hidden.

NASA allowed viewers to input a ZIP code and see how much of the sun was to be covered in their locations.

Could there be cloud cover be during the solar eclipse?

Some areas along the path of totality had a higher likelihood of cloud cover that could interfere with viewing the eclipse. Here is a map showing the historical trends in cloud cover this time of year. 

You could have checked the latest forecast for your location with our partners at The Weather Channel .

Where did the solar eclipse reach totality for the longest?

Eclipse viewers near Torreón, Mexico, got to experience totality for the longest. Totality there lasted 4 minutes, 28 seconds, according to NASA. 

Most places along the centerline of the path of totality saw a totality duration of between 3.5 and 4 minutes, according to NASA. Some places in the U.S. came close to the maximum; Kerrville, Texas, had a totality duration of 4 minutes, 24 seconds.

What is the path of totality for the 2044 solar eclipse?

The next total solar eclipse that will be visible from the contiguous U.S. will be on Aug. 23, 2044.

Astronomy fans in the U.S. will have far fewer opportunities to see the 2044 eclipse they had on April 8. NASA has not yet made maps available for the 2044 eclipse but, according to The Planetary Society , the path of totality will only touch three states.

The 2024 eclipse will start in Greenland, pass over Canada and end as the sun sets in Montana, North Dakota and South Dakota, according to the Planetary Society.

Officials in California on Sunday slowly began guiding drivers past a collapsed section of scenic Highway 1 in the Big Sur area, one day after the damage left about 2,000 motorists stranded overnight.

Officials with the California Department of Transportation urged the public on Sunday to avoid that section of the southbound highway in the Central Coast, and Monterey County issued a disaster declaration. The highway remains closed to the public while crews work on the affected areas, where large chunks of the road fell into the ocean. The agency, known as Caltrans, did not give an estimate of when the highway would fully reopen.

Highway 1, also known as the Pacific Coast Highway, features stretches of rocky cliffs, lush mountains, panoramic beaches and coastal redwood forests.

Officials did not say what led to the collapse, but torrential rain on Saturday battered the area near Rocky Creek Bridge, the site of the damage, which is about 17 miles south of Monterey.

There were no reported injuries from the collapse. Many of those stranded on Saturday were visitors who were driving through the area over the Easter holiday and had to sleep in temporary shelters, said Nicholas Pasculli, a spokesman for Monterey County. Others stayed in local hotels, bed-and-breakfasts and campgrounds, and some slept in their cars, he added.

On Saturday evening at Nepenthe, a famed cliffside restaurant, customers slowly learned the news of the road closure from servers and bartenders, and groans could be heard as families scrambled to find empty rooms to spend the night.

Linda Molinari, a Pilates instructor from Hollister, Calif., and her boyfriend were two of those customers. They were making a day trip to Big Sur for lunch on Saturday and ended up arriving around 4 p.m. After hearing the news about the highway, they decided to head back home. At about 5:15 p.m. they were met with a roadblock and told by the authorities that they would have to turn around.

“We came here just to have lunch and go home, and now it’s like everyone is trapped here,” Ms. Molinari recalled thinking. “All the little hotels and stuff, you could tell everybody was swarming.”

Ms. Molinari and her boyfriend had brought their camper with them in case they wanted to pull over to watch the ocean. Instead, it ended up being their room for the night.

The couple went to a general store and bought some emergency supplies: water, hot dogs and instant oatmeal. They stayed near the Big Sur River Inn, which provided breakfast and Wi-Fi to travelers.

On Sunday, uniformed officials were guiding some motorists around the damaged road in organized convoys. As cars moved past the damaged area, drivers could see that a chunk of the highway had entirely disappeared, along with the rock barrier separating the highway from the cliff’s edge.

Another convoy was scheduled for Monday morning in case the crews were not able to reach everyone by Sunday night, Mr. Pasculli said.

“We’re hoping we can get all the visitors out today — that’s our hope, that’s our goal,” he said. “Suffice it to say, it’s a holiday weekend.”

An unseasonably cold and vigorous storm system cut through the southwestern Pacific Coast over the weekend, bringing rain, flash flooding and snow to parts of California and elsewhere.

Over the years, landslides have taken out portions of Highway 1, which stretches more than 650 miles, from south of Los Angeles to north of San Francisco, through Big Sur and across the Golden Gate Bridge. Most notably, in May 2017, some six million cubic yards of earth moved after heavy rains, adding 15 acres of coastline. The highway underwent repairs and reopened a year later.

Last year, relentless winter storms in California caused landslides that blocked a 20-mile stretch of Big Sur for several weeks.

Ms. Molinari and her boyfriend were among those who were able to leave with the convoy on Sunday afternoon. They made it back home around 2:30 p.m.

“Everything went fine,” she said, adding that they had not needed to eat the hot dogs. Still, she added, “it was a crazy, weird Easter.”

A total solar eclipse will cross the US on April 8. Here's what time Australians can watch the solar eclipse live stream

A rare total solar eclipse will sweep across the Pacific Ocean, through Mexico, the United States and Canada on April 8 (North American time).

The phenomenon occurs when the Moon passes between the Sun and Earth, completely blocking the face of the Sun.

Unfortunately, eclipse chasers in Australia won't be able to see the sky darken. However, NASA will live-stream the event for those outside the US.

Here are a few things to know about the North American eclipse, including why one Canadian city has declared a state of emergency in the lead-up to the celestial event.

What happens during a total solar eclipse?

Total eclipses happen when the Moon passes directly in front of the Sun , casting a shadow on Earth.

This is called the path of totality.

The sky darkens as if it were dusk or dawn, and nocturnal animals are known to wake up, believing night has arrived.

There are several stages in a total solar eclipse:

1. Partial eclipse begins:  The Moon starts to become visible over the Sun's disc. It looks like the Moon has taken a bite out of the Sun, hence the crescent shape. This phase generally lasts 70 to 80 minutes. 2. Baily's beads and diamond ring: The Moon covers the entire disc of the Sun, and observers are now within the Moon's umbra, the darkest part of the Moon's shadow. A diamond ring effect is visible, as are Baily's beads (the effect occurs when light rays from the Sun stream through the valleys along the Moon's horizon). 3. Totality reached: The Moon completely covers the disc of the Sun. In places along the path of totality, people will be able to view the Sun's corona — the star's outer atmosphere — which is typically not visible because of solar brightness. 4. Totality ends: The Moon starts moving away and the Sun begins to reappear. The diamond ring and Baily's beads may be observed again. 5. Partial eclipse ends: The Moon completely leaves the face of the Sun. Source: NASA

Solar physicist and eclipse chaser Ryan Milligan says it's a very primal, visceral feeling to see the Sun disappear in the middle of the day.

"It's not something your brain is accustomed to processing," Dr Milligan told ABC News Mornings.

"It's that kind of adrenaline rush, to have this fleeting experience, when the temperature drops, perhaps a few stars come out, the animals go to sleep, you're looking around trying to soak in this experience that only lasts for a couple of minutes."

Are all solar eclipses the same?

No , they're all very different.

"The part of the Sun's atmosphere, the corona you see during totality, can look very different, depending on what phase of the solar cycle we're in," Dr Milligan said.

"That can dictate how the corona is structured, the clouds of hydrogen gas and so on.

"Whether it's a sunrise eclipse, sunset, midday eclipse, it can have a dramatic effect, and where you are can change the experience of totality."

Where will the total solar eclipse be visible?

The eclipse will cross through North America, passing over parts of Mexico, the US, and Canada .

Thirteen US states will be along the path of totality. These are:

• Pennsylvania
• New Hampshire

The eclipse will then enter Canada in Southern Ontario, and continue through Quebec, New Brunswick, Prince Edward Island, and Nova Scotia.

What time does the solar eclipse start?

Unfortunately, we won't be able to see the total solar eclipse from Australia.

But luckily, NASA will be live-streaming the eclipse from beginning to end.

The live stream will begin at 1pm North American Eastern Daylight Time (so, 3am AEST on Tuesday for Aussie viewers) and will last 3 hours.

If you're eager to get up early and watch the live stream, here's when the eclipse will start depending on where you live:

• QLD, NSW, ACT, VIC, and Tasmania: Eclipse begins at 3:23am, reaching totality at 4:40am AEST
• NT and SA: Eclipse begins at 2:53am, reaching totality at 4:10am ACST
• WA: Eclipse begins at 1:23am, reaching totality at 2:40am AWST

What is special about the 2024 US solar eclipse?

It will be wider than the total solar eclipse in August 2017.

According to NASA, during that eclipse the path of totality ranged from 100 kilometres to 114km wide.

But during this year's eclipse, it will range from 174km to 196km.

Dr Milligan said this year's eclipse would give a lot of people an opportunity to witness a rare celestial event.

"It goes over such a populated land mass, which makes it quite unique," he said.

"Last year, the path of totality just clipped the top of Australia, which is a very limited place on Earth where you could see the eclipse.

"So this year there is a huge difference in terms of viewing size."

And this year's total solar eclipse will also have a longer duration in totality  — meaning the Sun will appear to be blacked out for longer.

The 2017 total solar eclipse's longest blackout period was 2 minutes and 42 seconds.

But this year's will be 4 minutes and 28 seconds.

Niagara Falls prepares for influx of eclipse tourists

Ahead of the total solar eclipse, Canada's Niagara region has declared a state of emergency as the city prepares for large crowds to descend on the area.

Because Niagara Falls is on the eclipse's path of totality, it's expected more than 1 million people will flock to the border city to observe the celestial event.

This is compared to the 14 million visitors who travel there during an entire year.

The region will be closing some facilities to keep traffic off the roads, with most schools also closed on April 8.

How often do total solar eclipses occur?

Total solar eclipses occur once every one to two years .

"But they are only visible from less than half a per cent of the Earth's surface," says American astrophysicist Fred Espanak.

The next total solar eclipse will grace the northern fringes of Greenland, Iceland, and Spain in 2026.

When was Australia's last total solar eclipse?

The last total solar eclipse in Australia was on April 20, 2023.

But the only place where the Sun was blocked out was in Exmouth, on the tip of the North West Cape in Western Australia.

The rest of the country only experienced a partial solar eclipse.

When is the next solar eclipse in Australia?

In four years.

Here's a timeline for those eager to experience a solar eclipse in person:

• July 22, 2028: Totality will cross from the Kimberley, WA, through NT, south-west Qld, NSW and pass directly over Sydney
• November 25, 2030: Across SA, north-west NSW and southern Qld
• July 13, 2037: Southern WA, southern NT, western Qld, passing directly over Brisbane and the Gold Coast
• December 26, 2038: Central WA, SA, and along the NSW and Victorian border
