CLEVELAND—Four minutes. On April 8, 2024, that’s how long the sun is going to be completely blocked by the moon if you happen to be in the right place along the narrow path of totality. If you are looking for the best place to travel for this incredible natural event, look no further than Cleveland, Ohio.
If you’ve never seen an eclipse before, you will be surprised just how dark it gets. Not merely the dimness of an overcast sky or storm clouds; we’re talking like nightfall just after sunset. It’s so convincing for the natural world that birds take to their nests and insects start making their night music.
