* Timings for the beginning & end of partial eclipse and maximum eclipse are accurate to within a few seconds. This calculation uses a Delta T value of 0 seconds.
Timings for other events are approximate—they are included here as a rough guide to features that might be observable. The icons show the position of the Moon against the Sun at each stage.

This annular solar eclipse was fully visible in Chetumal. Observers there could experience the “ring of fire” that is characteristic for this kind of solar eclipse. This was a rare and spectacular event that could only be experienced along a relatively narrow strip on the Earth's surface. The eclipse was also visible in other areas, but the Moon did not move centrally in front of the Sun there and the “ring of fire” was not visible.
