The 2 August 2027 eclipse in Wair

Wair is inside the path of totality: the Sun will be completely covered for 1 min 25 s, from 13:33:43 to 13:35:08, Saudi Arabia time (UTC+3). Note: this is at the edge of the path. The Moon’s rugged limb shifts that edge by a kilometre or two, so totality may last a few seconds more or less, or not happen at all. The closer to the centre line, the safer and the longer.
