Total solar eclipse · August 2, 2027
Seville, Spain
Seville is NOT inside the path of totality. It gets a deep partial eclipse (98.3% of the Sun covered), impressive, but nothing like the real thing: daylight never truly breaks, and the corona stays invisible.

The night sky over Seville
We measured the darkness of the sky over Seville the way we rate every stargazing spot: Sky Score 3/100, about Bortle 8.7, from NASA Black Marble satellite radiance and a skyglow model calibrated on certified dark-sky sites. It describes the nights before and after the eclipse, not the eclipse itself.
In August, about 88% of nights here are clear (ERA5 climatology, 2015–2024, night hours).
