Jun 9, 2021 MADISON (WKOW) - Those looking to catch a glimpse of the partial solar eclipse will want to get up bright and early. The process will begin as early as 3:53am however, it won't be visible until the sun begins to rise; those looking to catch the early morning partial eclipse will want to turn their attention to the northeast around 5:20am. That's when the eclipse will be at its max where 35% of the sun will be covered. The entire eclipse should last only 20 or so minutes. Though this will not be a total solar eclipse, those looking to catch the event should remember to not look directly into the sun.
