The animation shows what the eclipse approximately looks like. Stages and times of the eclipse are outlined below.

Time	Phase	Event	Direction	Altitude
6:12 pm Sat, Feb 20	Not directly visible	Penumbral Eclipse begins Below horizon	90°	-26.3°
8:10 pm Sat, Feb 20	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.	78°	-0.2°
8:12 pm Sat, Feb 20		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-northeast 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.	78°	0.2°
10:13 pm Sat, Feb 20		Penumbral Eclipse ends The Earth's penumbra ends.	64°	24.9°

The curvature of the shadow's path and the apparent rotation of the Moon's disk is due to the Earth's rotation.

In the past, this day was cloudy 3% of the time (since 2000).
