Eclipse Simulator

From Astronomy Magazine -

Get a sneak peak of August’s total solar eclipse
This website simulates what the eclipse will look like from your location.
By Nicole Kiefert

The University of California, Berkeley teamed up with Google to create the Eclipse Megamovie Project, a new simulator that can show what the eclipse will look like from any location, including along the path of totality, which stretches across 11 states and goes up to 72 miles wide.

All you have to do is go to the website, enter the zip code or city you want to see, and you’ll receive an animation of the Sun in the sky over a three-hour time span. You’ll see whether you will stand in the path of totality on eclipse day, or alternatively how much of the Sun will disappear during the partial eclipse visible from other locations.
