Having seen 11 total solar eclipses, they are totally (pun intended) different from partial. The next US one after that runs from south Texas to Rochester NY in 2024. There is a ring (annular) eclipse in the southwest in May 2012, a great time, weather-wise. It doesn’t get dark with annular eclipses, but seeing a big black hole in the middle of the Sun is pretty cool.
