Maximum in Lima This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in Lima. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in Lima because the Moon is below the horizon at that time.
Moon close to horizon, recommend going to a high point.		Map direction West-southwest 251°

How to use altitude & direction to find in the sky

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

During this partial lunar eclipse, the Earth's shadow covered only parts of the Moon, as seen from Lima. There were no other locations on Earth where the Moon appeared completely covered during this event.

Cloud Coverage (Aug 4)

In the past, this day was cloudy 93% of the time (since 2000).
