The path of complete blackout crossed the most sparsely inhabited wastes of Asia and North America, favoring only Canada's southeasternmost provinces before crossing the Atlantic to fizzle out at sunset near the Azores. Most big-city dwellers had to content themselves with partial obscuration: 88% in Montreal, 80% in New York and 40% in Miami...
