Weather permitting, millions of people in Mexico, 15 U.S. states and eastern Canada will have the chance to see the moon slip between Earth and sun, temporarily blocking the sun’s light. Many areas of the country will pass under the “path of totality” which will bring complete darkness in an area 100 miles wide across the continent for a few minutes. Monday’s solar eclipse is one of the most highly anticipated sky-watching events and will give individuals a chance to experience an event that only comes once every several years.

After moving northeast across Mexico, the eclipse’s path travels through Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Missouri, Illinois, Kentucky, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine. Slivers of Michigan and Tennessee will also be able to witness totality if conditions are clear.
In all other areas of the country, there will be partial coverage as the moon covers slivers of the sun in various locations. The timing of the eclipse and the duration of totality varies by location, but most places will experience around 2 minutes of darkness. The longest periods of totality are typically in the center of the eclipse’s path which will be located around Torreón, Mexico. The darkness at the center will last around 4 minutes and 28 seconds.
Experts recommend not looking directly at the eclipse unless special glasses are worn as it can cause permanent eye damage.
Regional restrictions may apply.
