Twice in a human lifetime, the moon's shadow falls across a continent and reminds us how small our preparations are against the scale of the cosmos. On Monday, that shadow will sweep from Mexico's Pacific shore to Canada's Atlantic coast in under two hours, offering millions a fleeting encounter with totality — a darkness that arrives on schedule, indifferent to cloud cover or traffic jams. The communities in its path have done what humans always do before the sublime: they have stocked supplies, issued declarations, and braced themselves for something they cannot fully control.

Consumers will experience temporary price increases for fuel, lodging, and food in eclipse-path communities due to surge demand. Travel congestion and service delays expected. Weather uncertainty may disappoint travelers who invested in travel costs, particularly in cloudy regions like Texas.
