Details

Annularity, where the Sun forms a ‘ring of fire’ around the Moon, is visible along a narrow path that crosses the USA from Oregon to Texas. It then passes over Mexico’s Yucatán peninsula, plus parts of Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Colombia, and Brazil. Elsewhere in the Americas—from Alaska to Argentina—a partial eclipse will be visible.

The sun rises around 7:30am, chasing down the moon all morning until reaching maximum visible in MN around noon. Not very spectacular from MN, so go SW many hours to see it better.
