Tuesday’s ‘Blood Moon’ Eclipse: Exact Times For Every U.S. State

The total lunar eclipse, known as a blood moon, will be fully visible in western and central U.S., while Florida will see only the eclipse's start, NASA said.

  • On Tuesday, March 3, 2026, a total lunar eclipse will coincide with the Worm Moon and be visible across the Lower 48, Alaska and Hawaii.
  • During a total lunar eclipse, Earth's atmosphere filters sunlight, tinting the Moon red with a blood moon effect; the Old Farmer's Almanac calls the March full moon the Worm Moon for thawing soil and emerging worms.
  • Expect timing details: partial phase start time is 4:50 a.m., totality duration is 58 minutes, and full eclipse duration spans 5 hours and 38 minutes.
  • In Florida, residents see the eclipse start at 3:44 a.m. ET, with totality near sunrise at 6:33 a.m., while East Coast viewers may witness a selenelion aided by atmospheric refraction lifting the moon 0.5 degrees for five minutes.
  • Observers should begin watching at least 75 minutes before totality and use binoculars, small refractor telescopes, or 6-inch and 8-inch reflector telescopes for better detail.
