April 8th Total Solar Eclipse Viewability Information

A Total Solar Eclipse will take place on April 8th, 2024. While the path of totality will be across portions of central Texas into the Ohio Valley and Northeastern US, south central and southeast Colorado will see between 65 to 75 percent totality, maxing out between 1235 PM and 1245 PM MDT. The following map of early April climatology suggests between 70-80 percent chance of viewability (no clouds) across much of southern Colorado. Remember to never look directly into the sun! The only way to safely view the eclipse is through special "eclipse glasses" or specially designed solar viewers. NOAA will participate in the Space Foundation's solar eclipse viewing event at the Broadmoor Resort on April 8th. While this will be the last solar eclipse visible across the contiguous US until 2044, the path of totality for the August 12th, 2045 solar eclipse will be across south central and southeast Colorado!
