North American Towns Prepare for Rare 2024 Solar Eclipse.

Towns across North America are preparing for the Great North American Solar Eclipse, which will occur on April 8, 2024, and will be the last of its kind in North America until 2045. The eclipse will be most intense in a strip of area that crests through Mexico, the middle of Texas, parts of at least 14 other continental states, and southeastern Canada. Cities and towns along the route that will experience the totality are already preparing celebrations and viewing parties. It is never safe to look directly at the sun without a safe solar filter.
