Based on historical weather and cloud coverage data, the best locations to go and see the April 8, 2024 Solar Eclipses are inside the totality strip close to the Mexico/Texas border, both on the Mexican and US side. These locations in particular seem to be the most promising in absolute:
- Melchor Múzquiz, Mexico
- Allende, Mexico
- Piedras Negras, Mexico
- Eagle Pass, Texas
- Kerrville, Texas
- Fredericksburg, Texas
- Lampasas, Texas
From these locations it will be possible to observe the eclipse with the longest totality duration (more than 4 minutes and 20 seconds) and with the highest probability of mostly clear skies (58/59% chances of mostly clear skies on the day of the eclipse). Many other locations in Mexico and Texas will in any case provide good chances of observing the eclipse, with a probability greater than 50% of having mostly clear skies.
