What you'll see in Medina

Artist's impression of the eclipse over Medina: the Moon covering 94.4% of the Sun, 75.9° above the horizon.

Artist's impression. The size of the bite is the 94.4% published for Medina, the side the Moon crosses from is its real position angle at maximum, and the Sun's height above the rooftops is its real altitude. The skyline itself is generic.

Medina gets 94.4% of the Sun covered, with the path of totality passing to the south through Jeddah and Mecca.

Keep eclipse glasses on for the whole event — the Moon never fully covers the Sun here, so it is never safe to look without them, even at maximum.

⚠ Eye safety

Use ISO 12312-2 certified eclipse glasses for the entire partial phase. There is no safe moment to remove them in this city — the Sun is never fully covered.
