| Time | Phase | Event | Direction | Altitude |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 04:23 28 Ağu Cum | 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 Southwest. |  224° | 8.1° | |
| 05:33 28 Ağu Cum | Partial Eclipse begins Partial moon eclipse starts - moon is getting red. Moon close to horizon, so make sure you have free sight to West-southwest. | 240° | 2.5° | |
| 06:01 28 Ağu Cum | Maximum in Jakobstad This is the moment when the eclipse reaches its greatest magnitude while the entire Moon is above the horizon in Jakobstad.

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.
