LUNAR ECLIPSE OF 3RD mARCH 2026. The main TOTALITY part will NOT BE visible from Siliguri or North Bengal
The Timings:
1. Eclipse Starts: 03:20PM (Daytime. Moon is bellow Horizon. Not Visible)
2. Total Eclipse starts: 04:34PM (Daytime. Moon is bellow Horizon. Not Visible)
3. Total Eclipse ends: 05:33PM (Daytime. Moon is bellow Horizon. Not Visible. )
4. Moon Rise: 05:39PM (Daytime. Moon is not visible)
5. Sunset: 06:05PM (Strong light in the sky. Moon is not visible)
6. Eclipse ends: 06:48PM (Moon is faintly visible).
So, practically, the extreame end part of the eclipse will be visible after around 06:40PM to 06:48PM. But thick dust layer in the air and post sunset twilight may make even this small portion also not visible from Siliguri.
The timings and positioning of Moon will be almost the same for Entire West Bengal.
The picture shows a simulated view of Moon with its tiny portion under shadow- as to be seen from Siliguri at 06:40PM.
