Sunrise Eclipse, March 29, 2025

NYEclipseThere is a partial solar eclipse taking place the morning of Saturday, March 29. In North America, it will be visible at sunrise, basically northeast of a line extending from Washington, DC, to Toronto. It will be visible in Boston, Montreal, Quèbec City, and throughout Vermont, New Hampshire, Maine, New Brunswick, Nova Scotia, and Newfoundland. In most of Western Europe, it will be visible in the late morning. To find the information at your location, you can use the map found at this link.

This eclipse is “just” a partial eclipse, so if you didn’t know anything was happening, you might miss it. But it’s still an interesting phenomenon.

But in North America, it has the potential for a spectacular view, as it will be a sunrise eclipse. Instead of a normal sunrise that morning, you will see the crescent sun rising. The picture above was taken during the sunrise eclipse of June 10, 2021. This one will present a similar view from the Statue of Liberty, and other locations in the northeastern U.S. and eastern Canada.

As with any sunrise, you can quickly glance at it. But for extended viewing, or for even a quick glance when the sun is above the horizon, you will need eclipse glasses. If you still have your pair from the last eclipse, you can use them, as long as they are not physically damaged. But if you need another pair, you can get them from our sister site, MyEclipseGlasses.com.
