Eclipses in New York 2027
Local circumstances of every solar and lunar eclipse of 2027 as seen from New York: contact times in local time, the eclipsed luminary's altitude at each contact, obscuration, and the sutak window. Instants come from a high-accuracy astronomical search (Lahiri sidereal).
Observable from New York = the eclipsed luminary is above your horizon during at least part of the umbral (partial or total) phase — the naked-eye eclipse. Altitudes are apparent (refraction-corrected) for the luminary's centre; a centre altitude of 0° still leaves the disc's upper limb roughly 0.8° up, so an eclipse grazing the horizon is genuinely visible.
