Weather forecast for Biysk - 320km south of Novosibirsk:

Biysk is right at the foothills of the ALtay Mountains, so there's not much point going further south than this. Next stop past the mountains would mean crossing into Mongolia.
Weather forecast for Barnaul - 200km south of Novosibirsk

No major roads north of Novosibirsk along the eclipse path.

The M52 road runs right along the centreline of the eclipse so we just need to take this road and keep driving till we hit a clear area.
