    Lunar eclipse on Sunday evening – red moon in the Earth's shadow

Lunar eclipse on Sunday
Red moon in the Earth's shadow

Red moon during a total lunar eclipse in the night sky.
On Sunday, there will be a real astrological highlight with a lunar eclipse.

With little cloud cover, a total lunar eclipse can be observed again on Sunday evening. The moon will rise over the UK and Ireland at around 07:45 pm, already completely eclipsed.

The beginning of the eclipse will only be visible in Asia and parts of Eastern Europe, where the moon rises above the horizon much earlier. In Western Europe, on the other hand, it rises later and only the end of the eclipse can be seen.

Shortly after moonrise, the eclipse reaches its midpoint, and just 40 minutes later, the total phase ends. In the following hour, the moon slowly moves out of the Earth's umbra again.

The Weather & Radar app not only provides reliable weather forecasts, but also displays astronomical information such as moon phases and current sunrise and sunset times in a compact format.

Super Typhoon Bavi threatens Taiwan. Up to 1,000 mm of rain. . . Wednesday, 8 July 2026
The image shows an intense tropical cyclone over the western Pacific, east of Taiwan and the Philippines. The centre of the system is depicted as a light purple and white vortex with a clearly visible eye, surrounded by a ring of red and orange areas indicating the strongest wind speeds. A white arrow marks the typhoon’s predicted track towards the north-west, in the direction of Taiwan. To the west of the storm lie the Philippines, with the cities of Manila and Cebu; to the north of these lies Taiwan, with Taipei. Further west, the Chinese coast, including Hong Kong, and parts of Vietnam can be seen. The coloured wind map shows predominantly green areas outside the storm’s core, indicating significantly weaker winds. White streamlines illustrate the typhoon’s anti-clockwise circulation in the Northern Hemisphere. The highest wind speeds are concentrated around the eye of the cyclone.
