"Revised Path of 2024 Total Solar Eclipse: Impact and Celebration Plans"

TL;DR Summary
A new report by amateur astronomers suggests that the path of the upcoming April 8 eclipse may have shifted north in some areas and become narrower due to adjustments accounting for the Moon and Earth's topography, potentially impacting towns like Comanche, Eagle Mountain, Elizabethtown, Krugerville, and Dorchester in Texas. Only areas within 100% of the eclipse's path of totality will see the total eclipse, and towns along the southern edge of the path may need to move less than a mile north to still witness it. Professional space organizations like NASA have not yet published a similar map.
