Where and when will the total eclipse be visible?
On Thursday morning, 11 July 1991, the eclipse will start at sunrise roughly 12,00 miles to the west-southwest of Hawaii. The total phase of the eclipse starts at 7:30 a.m. over the main island of Hawaii, when the Sun is about 22 degrees high in the sky to the east-northeast. For the next 70 minutes, the Moon’s shadow will glide across the Pacific Ocean, heading east-southeast towards Baja California. The path of totality crosses the Gulf of California a little before noon, local time, and arches to Guadalajara, Mazatlan, and Mexico City, before turning southeast to cross Central America, Columbia, and Brazil around sunset.
