"April 8 Total Solar Eclipse: City Avoidance, Path Proximity, and Spending Boom Forecast"

On April 8, a total solar eclipse will sweep across North America, but many cities will only experience a partial eclipse. It's crucial to be within the path of totality to witness the extraordinary event, and those near the edge should aim to move farther into the path. Major cities like San Antonio, Austin, Columbus, and Cincinnati are intersected by the path of totality, but parts of these cities will miss the total eclipse. It's advised to avoid cities and towns on the edge of the path and plan to spend the entire day in a location within the path of totality for the best viewing experience.
