Monday’s extravaganza stretches from Mexico’s Pacific beaches to Canada’s rugged Atlantic shores, with 15 U.S. states in between. Jeff Pappas and his wife, Maribeth Messineo Pappas, pose by their Airstream trailer at the Range Vintage Trailer Resort near Ennis, Texas, Sunday, April 7, 2024. The couple lives in Dallas but wanted to watch the eclipse from the resort about 30 miles away. Messineo Pappas said they often stay at the resort, which she said is a “magical place” on an average day, so they thought being there for the eclipse would be really special.
Gabriel Kauffman, 4, and his brother, Theodore, 6, demonstrate a total solar eclipse at a NASA booth at the Great Lakes Science Center in Cleveland, on Sunday, April 7, 2024. They live in Baltimore and came to the Cleveland area to see the eclipse with relatives. In Cleveland, the eclipse persuaded women’s Final Four fans Matt and Sheila Powell to stick around an extra day after Sunday’s game. But they were debating whether to begin their drive home to Missouri Valley, Iowa, early Monday in search of clearer skies along the eclipse’s path. “We’re trying to be flexible,” Powell said.

It will sweep from Texas to Maine, passing over several major cities, including San Antonio, Dallas, Little Rock, Indianapolis, Cleveland, and Buffalo.
