A total lunar eclipse is scheduled for March 3, 2026, promising a spectacular celestial display. The event is expected to last approximately 5 hours and 40 minutes, beginning at 3:44 a.m. Eastern Standard Time. Skywatchers in Knoxville, Tennessee, may face challenges due to anticipated cloudy conditions. According to National Weather Service meteorologist Andrew Moulton, Knoxville is likely to experience cloud cover that could obscure the view of the eclipse. Recent rainstorms in East Tennessee also increase the likelihood of fog developing, further complicating viewing conditions. The forecast suggests that areas south of Interstate 40, particularly around Chattanooga, may offer better chances of clear skies.
