An annular eclipse of the Sun occurs on Sunday 27 November, 2095 UT, with maximum eclipse at 00:59 UT. A small annular eclipse will cover only 93% of the Sun in a very broad path, 285 km wide at maximum, and will last 8 minutes and 47 seconds.
The annular eclipse lasts for 8 minutes and 47 seconds. Maximum eclipse is at 00:59:44 UT.
During this eclipse the Sun will be 0.540° in apparent diameter, 1.3% larger than average. The Moon will be just 4 days past apogee, making it fairly small. At maximum eclipse it will be 0.504° in apparent diameter, which is 5.1% smaller than average; this is not large enough to cover the Sun, which is why this is an annular eclipse. The statistics page has information on the ranges of the sizes of the Sun and Moon, and the Moon data page displays detailed information on the Moon's key dates.
This map shows the visibility of the eclipse. The shaded area will see the annular solar eclipse; however, near the edges of this area, the eclipse will be very short. The bold line shows the centre of the path, where the eclipse will last longest, so this is where you want to be if possible.
Use the zoom controls to zoom in and out; hover your mouse over any point on the centreline to see the time and duration of the eclipse at that point. You can pan and zoom the map to see detail for any part of the eclipse path.

The Sun and Moon distances are shown in km, and as a percentage of their minimum - maximum distances; hence 0% is the closest possible (Earth's perihelion, or the Moon's closest possible perigee) and 100% is the farthest (aphelion, the farthest apogee). The statistics page has information on the ranges of sizes of the Sun and Moon, and the Moon data page displays detailed information on the Moon's key dates.
