The animation shows what the eclipse approximately looks like. Stages and times of the eclipse are outlined below.
| Time | Phase | Event | Direction | Altitude |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3:32 pm Mon, Nov 30 | Not directly visible | Penumbral Eclipse begins Below horizon |  49° | -13.2° |
| 4:51 pm Mon, Nov 30 | 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. | 62° | -0.2° |
| 5:42 pm Mon, Nov 30 | Maximum Eclipse Moon is closest to the center of the shadow. Moon close to horizon, so make sure you have free sight to East-northeast. | 70° | 8.1° | |
| 7:53 pm Mon, Nov 30 | Penumbral Eclipse ends The Earth's penumbra ends. | 88° | 32.2° |
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.
