The August 12, 2026 total solar eclipse in Fuentelsaz (Guadalajara)

Fuentelsaz shares the provincial duration record with Algar de Mesa, 103 seconds, and still dropped to fourth in the index. The reason is awkward and worth stating plainly: its sky record is the weakest of Guadalajara's five leaders. Some 53.0% of 12 August dates between 1996 and 2025 dawned clear here, below the provincial median of 54.5% and only 194th of the 288 municipalities inside the band. The town that tied the maximum in seconds was, in historical odds, among the worse placed in its own province.

The rest of its figures are textbook Senorio de Molina: 1,181 metres of altitude, 5.9 degrees of horizon clearance and a very low Sun, 6 degrees above the west-northwest line at the 20:30:49 maximum. Totality ran from 20:29:57 to 20:31:40. It was also the first of this group to lose the Sun, at 21:10:13, still in partial phase. Those percentages describe thirty years of climate, never what happened on that particular evening.
