Eclipse
In Washington DC area:
The solar eclipse is on Monday, April 8. You'll be able to see it in the D.C. area from 2 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. Maximum eclipse is expected about 3:20 p.m., but the exact timing depends on your location.3
And
The big picture: The D.C. area is a ways from the path of totality, but Washingtonians will see a partial eclipse from 2:04pm to 4:32pm. The greatest coverage: 3:20pm, per a tracking tool from NASA. Almost 88% of the sun will be covered by the moon's shadow.
Bottom line:
In our area max eclipse will be at 3:20 pm
AND Moon will cover only 88% of sun.
