The 2 August 2027 eclipse in Aïn Médiouna

Aïn Médiouna is outside the path of totality. The Moon will cover 99.8% of the Sun at 08:48, Morocco time (GMT). Note: the edge of the path is close. It is calculated to within a kilometre or two because of the Moon’s rugged limb, so don’t cut it fine: to see totality, go well inside the path.
