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

Time	Phase	Event	Direction	Altitude
5:53 am Mon, Mar 25		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 West.	260°	6.1°
6:32 am Mon, Mar 25		Maximum in 49°28'58.1"N, 6°20'39.5"E This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in 49°28'58.1"N, 6°20'39.5"E. The true maximum point of this eclipse cannot be seen in 49°28'58.1"N, 6°20'39.5"E because the Moon is below the horizon at that time. 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 West for the best view of the eclipse.	268°	0.2°
6:35 am Mon, Mar 25	Setting	Moonset Setting, but the combination of a very low moon and the total eclipse phase makes the Moon so dim before it sets, that it might disappear from view some time before it sets.	268°	-0.2°
8:12 am Mon, Mar 25	Not directly visible	Maximum Eclipse Below horizon	286°	-16.3°
10:32 am Mon, Mar 25	Not directly visible	Penumbral Eclipse ends Below horizon	318°	-35.2°

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 70% of the time (since 2000).
