What you will see
Harbu is outside the path of totality, so the Sun is never fully covered. At the peak, 13:45:53 local time, the Moon hides 75.7% of the Sun. The partial eclipse starts at 12:22:18 and ends at 15:01:24, 2 h 39 min later.
At the peak the Sun is 70° above the horizon, towards the west, so you want a clear view in that direction from Harbu.

Seeing totality
The nearest edge of the path of totality is about 675 km north-east of Harbu.
The nearest place on this site with at least a minute of totality is Shibām, about 677 km north-east, where totality lasts 1 m 12 s.
Totality is shortest at the edges of the path and longest along the centre line, so the further inside you go, the longer it lasts.
Eye safety guide: Never look at the Sun without certified eclipse glasses, except during totality.
