The August 12, 2026 total solar eclipse in Segovia (Segovia)

The provincial capital did fall inside the band, but near the bottom of its own table. Its 58 seconds of totality left it 171st among the 204 Segovian municipalities in shadow, 42 seconds behind the province's north-east: some eighty-five kilometres in a straight line towards Maderuelo would have nearly doubled the event. In the overall index it dropped to 66.2 points, 169th in the province, far from Aldealengua de Santa María's 81.6.

What Segovia did have going for it was terrain geometry: 7.7 degrees of open horizon with the Sun itself at 8, the most open skyline of the six Segovian municipalities detailed in this archive, and the lowest rainfall indicator, 19.4 against the north-east's 27. Its clear-sky statistic, 50.3 % over the 1996-2025 series, was practically identical to that of the villages beating it on duration, so the gap lay in the clock and not in the weather. Totality ran from 20:31:03 to 20:32:01, the latest and shortest window recorded here.
