"Total Solar Eclipse Viewing Guide: Timing, Locations, and Weather in Michigan and Beyond"

The April 8, 2024 total solar eclipse will be visible in various parts of the U.S., with some areas experiencing a total eclipse and others a partial one. Michigan, although mostly outside the path of totality, will still be able to witness the event with approved eclipse glasses or a safe viewer. A small section of southeastern Monroe County in Michigan is expected to be in the path of totality, where the area will likely experience dimming and a slight drop in temperatures as the moon's shadow covers the sun. Residents can use a ZIP code locator to find out the time, duration, peak, and percentage of the eclipse in their area.
