It will be cloudy, especially in the south and in the Randstad. In the south of the country, some rain and thunderstorms can also throw a spanner in the works.
In a total lunar eclipse, the Earth is exactly between the moon and the sun. The earth blocks the sunlight and the moon ends up in the shadows. The eclipse will begin around 4:28 a.m. Slowly but surely the moon gets a little darker. The total eclipse begins at 5:29 AM. About fifteen minutes later it is already over for the Netherlands. Then the moon sets and the sun rises. The sky is getting too clear to see anything else. As a result, we miss the maximum, at 06.12. The total eclipse is best seen in North, Central and South America.
On December 20, 2029, a total lunar eclipse from beginning to end will be visible in the Netherlands. The last time this happened was in September 2015.
