Time Phase Event Direction Altitude
3:28 pm Sun, Sep 7 Not directly visible Penumbral Eclipse begins Below horizon Map direction East 88°
-39.2°
4:27 pm Sun, Sep 7 Not directly visible Partial Eclipse begins Below horizon Map direction East 91°

5:30 pm Sun, Sep 7 Not directly visible Total Eclipse begins Below horizon Map direction East 94°
-10.4°
6:11 pm Sun, Sep 7 Rising Moonrise Rising, but the combination of a very low moon and the total eclipse phase will make the moon so dim that it will be extremely difficult to view until moon gets higher in the sky or the total phase ends. Map direction East 96°
-0.2°
6:11 pm Sun, Sep 7
Maximum Eclipse Moon is closest to the center of the shadow.
Since the Moon is near the horizon at this time, we recommend going to a high point or finding an unobstructed area with free sight to East for the best view of the eclipse.
Additionally, the eclipsed moon combined with dimming near horizon might make the Moon very hard or impossible to see.

6:13 pm Sun, Sep 7
Maximum in 12°16'10.3"N, 1°45'19.9"W This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in 12°16'10.3"N, 1°45'19.9"W. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in 12°16'10.3"N, 1°45'19.9"W because the Moon is below the horizon at that time.
Since the Moon is near the horizon at this time, we recommend going to a high point or finding an unobstructed area with free sight to East for the best view of the eclipse.
