Tulebras makes more sense when you look at who missed out. Fitero recorded exactly the same 86 seconds of totality and still failed to reach the Navarrese index top five: it stopped at 75.8 points, two tenths behind Cortes. The difference between them is not geometry but the sky record, 50.8% of clear years at Tulebras against 48.3% at Fitero, and that was enough to put one at the head of the province and leave the other out. Two tenths of an index point, decided by two and a half points of climate.

Tulebras is the northernmost of the five Ebro-lowland leaders and the first, alongside Ablitas, to enter totality, at 20:28:37, closing it at 20:30:03. It sits at 369 metres, counted on 5.4 degrees of slack over the western skyline and its clear-sky percentage is, curiously, the lowest of the five: second place in the provincial index with the weakest climatic bet of the group. Dusk arrived at 21:11:25, ahead of the eclipse's own ending.
