The article has a link to an excellent "eclipseophile": ANNULAR SOLAR ECLIPSE – OCTOBER 14, 2023. Lots of detailed and excellent information there on where to go to have the best chance of a cloudless sky.
"October is a friendly month and much of the American part of the track offers very promising prospects of sunny skies on eclipse day."
(NOTE: I set the width of the images to 1000 which is good for computers. Sorry to those on phones and tablets.)
It's a 1,076 mile drive from North Idaho to the Four Corners area. Who is up for a road trip?
I lucked out and had a wonderful viewing location in Oregon for the 2017 eclipse. I wonder if I can luck out again.
Thanks for posting the map. We’re not going to travel for this one, since we saw the annular eclipse in 2012 and the total in 2017. You probably don’t need to go clear to Four Corners yourself; it looks like you could see it in Winnemucca just as well. 4C is nicer country, of course.
