A good portion of northern and western New York is in the targeted path of a total solar eclipse that will take place on April 8, 2024. To accommodate an expected influx of travelers hoping to get a peak at the event, New York State Parks intends to open certain locations for camping from April 4-8, 2024.
After April 8, the next total solar eclipse that will be visible from the contiguous U.S. will not be until August, 2044.
