With the naked eye

What you will actually notice in Ain Dorbane Lahlaf

  1. 07:38 The Moon touches the edge of the Sun and the light starts to drop. You will not see it yet: a small bite out of a Sun that is still dazzling.
  2. 66 min of steady fading until maximum. In the last stretch it becomes obvious: shadows sharpen, colours go flat and the air goes still in Ain Dorbane Lahlaf.
  3. 08:44 Maximum: the Moon covers 95.1% of the Sun.
  4. 95.1 % of the Sun covered. The light will turn strange — flat and cold, like a storm that never arrives — but it does NOT go dark: for that you have to be inside the path of totality.
  5. 36.4° above the horizon at maximum. With the Sun this high you do not need a clear horizon: just make sure no nearby building is in the way.
  6. 09:57 The disc is whole again and the eclipse is over.

The question everyone is asking

95.1% is not 100%

In Ain Dorbane Lahlaf the Moon will cover 95.1% of the Sun. The missing 4.9% changes everything: while a single sliver of the Sun's surface is still visible, it is still daytime. No corona, no planets, no twilight darkness — and the glasses never come off.

Ain Dorbane Lahlaf gets 0 seconds of totality. 198 km away, in Souk Tlet El Gharb (Rabat-Sale-Kenitra region), totality lasts 41 seconds.

If you can travel that day, travel: inside the path it is something else. If you cannot, 95.1% through eclipse glasses is still well worth it.
