Total Solar Eclipse: How Much We'll See In Encinitas, When To See It

ENCINITAS, CA — Encinitas is ready for Monday's solar eclipse. We're not among some 32 million Americans living in the path of totality, but the celestial sensation will be noticeable.

In the United States, the path of totality extends from Texas to Maine, but each of the 48 continental states will see some of the solar eclipse, which occurs when the moon slips between our bright star and Earth. In Encinitas, the moon will cover about 53 percent of the sun at the peak of the eclipse, according to a NASA map that is searchable by ZIP code.

Here are the details:
Partial eclipse begins: 10:04 a.m.
Totality begins: 10:35 a.m.
Maximum: 11:11 a.m.
Totality ends: 11:49 a.m.
Partial ends: 12:23 a.m.
