| Time | Phase | Event | Direction | Altitude |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 9:07 am Wed, Jan 12 | Penumbral Eclipse begins The Earth's penumbra start touching the Moon's face. Moon close to horizon, so make sure you have free sight to Northwest. |  304° | 9.1° | |
| 10:45 am Wed, Jan 12 | Partial Eclipse begins Partial moon eclipse starts - moon is getting red. Moon close to horizon, so make sure you have free sight to Northwest. | 325° | 2.2° | |
| 11:13 am Wed, Jan 12 | Maximum Eclipse Moon is closest to the center of the shadow. Moon close to horizon, recommend going to a high point. Additionally, the eclipsed moon combined with dimming near horizon might make the Moon very hard or impossible to see. | 331° | 0.8° | |
| 11:40 am Wed, Jan 12 | Setting | Moonset Setting | 337° | -0.2° |
| 11:41 am Wed, Jan 12 | Not directly visible | Partial Eclipse ends Below horizon | 337° | -0.2° |
| 1:18 pm Wed, Jan 12 | Not directly visible | Penumbral Eclipse ends Below horizon | 358° | -2.4° |
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.
