Meridian Passage

Merritt BC there will be a meridian passage at 11.08 a.m. on September 7th 2025, you won’t see the moon rise because it’ll  it will be in the daytime.

You won’t be able to see the next total lunar eclipse in Merritt, British Columbia, as it will be happening during the daytime in your location. The next total lunar eclipse, also known as a blood moon, is on September 7, 2025, but it will not be visible in North America.
What is a Lunar Eclipse and Blood Moon?
A lunar eclipse happens when the Earth passes directly between the Sun and Moon, casting a shadow on the Moon.  The “blood moon” effect occurs during a total lunar eclipse when the Moon turns a reddish-orange hue. This is caused by sunlight filtering through Earth’s atmosphere, which scatters blue and violet light, but allows red and orange light to pass through and reach the Moon.
Why Won’t Merritt See It?
This eclipse will primarily be visible across Asia, Africa, Europe, and Australia. For Merritt, British Columbia, the eclipse is scheduled to occur during your daylight hours, when the Moon is not visible in the sky.
Next Eclipses Visible in Merritt
The last total lunar eclipse visible in Merritt was on March 13–14, 2025. Here are the next total lunar eclipses that will be at least partially visible from your location:
* March 3, 2026: A total lunar eclipse will be visible, although it may be ongoing at moonset.
* October 8, 2033: A total lunar eclipse will be visible from Merritt.
