By now you likely know there’s a total solar eclipse in the U.S. on Monday (Apr. 8), but sadly the total part won’t happen in Colorado. We will see a partial eclipse, though, so here’s when and where to see it.

Here’s how obscured the sun will be during the peak of the eclipse in various places around Colorado, as well as when that peak will occur, per The Washington Post. It’s also worth noting that the eclipse starts about an hour and 15 minutes prior to the peak, ending roughly an hour and 15 minutes after the peak.

Breckenridge: 64 percent obscured, 12:38 p.m. peak

Burlington, 72 percent obscured, 12:43 p.m. peak

Colorado Springs: 68 percent obscured, 12:39 p.m. peak

Denver: 65 percent obscured, 12:40 peak

Durango: 65 percent obscured, 12:32 p.m. peak

Fort Collins: 63 percent obscured, 12:41 p.m. peak

Grand Junction: 59 percent obscured, 12:34 p.m. peak

Lamar: 75 percent obscured, 12:41 p.m. peak

Steamboat Springs: 59 percent obscured, 12:38 p.m. peak

Trinidad: 73 percent obscured, 12:37 p.m. peak
