How the upcoming solar eclipse could cast a shadow on cell services in the US

The solar eclipse is days away — it is scheduled for 8 April — and it is expected to draw in large crowds. It’s the day when North America — the United States, Canada and Mexico — will experience its second total solar eclipse in seven years. Before we dive into how the solar eclipse could affect cellular networks, let’s understand who will be able to witness this event. A total solar eclipse on 8 April will enter over Mexico’s Pacific coast, dash up through Texas and Oklahoma, crisscross the Midwest, Mid-Atlantic and New England, before exiting over eastern Canada into the Atlantic. And as the eclipse draws closer, several cellphone networks have warned users that the upcoming solar eclipse may affect cell service.
