For tomorrow’s eclipse I built a small free tool that reconstructs the ground-level view anywhere in the visibility zone, with buildings and forests from OSM extruded over real terrain, and the eclipse computed minute by minute. I posted the technical details on the community forum this week. The tool is at 2026eclipse.eu. Feedback on how your area renders is very welcome, especially where height tagging is sparse.
Thanks @mccartney436 for the report, that was a useful one.
The timezone normally comes from the weather API, which returns the offset for the location itself. When that call fails, the site was falling back to a rough estimate based on longitude, which ignores daylight saving time. For Warsaw that gives UTC+1 instead of UTC+2, so everything shows one hour early. Exactly what you saw.
It’s now fixed: the fallback uses a real timezone table instead of the longitude guess. Reload the page and you should get the right times.
One thing I’m curious about, if you still have it open: did the panel show “UTC+1” instead of “GMT+2” at the bottom, and did you get a message about the weather being unavailable? That would confirm the diagnosis.
