Of course we have rain and clouds. Ill look anyway. Thanks.

Dang! I hope clear enough, long enough for you.

I hope to remember to stay up tonight.

I'll stop at the liquor store on the way home and pick up some Blue Moon to celebrate!

Hounds, I realized I'd left out a word while I was out today. You are very correct. SUPER blue moon. Agree :)

We are driving to Palm Springs/Cathedral City this evening and should get a great view of it from the highway, since we will be going due East. We did this drive recently during a full moon, and it was very nice to watch while driving. We leave L.A. about 7 PM, which I think is close to when the moon will be rising. We should have very clear skies.

Lucky you, Lars, enjoy! I loved my trip to Joshua Tree years ago for the awesome night sky (moon was a crescent that time) . The park rangers put on a nice presentation of what to look for in the night sky and my kids were at the perfect age for it!

At least I saw the first full moon in August during a lovely clear spell - now we have rain and clouds:((

Hopefully I'll remember. Been watering my garden and deadheading cosmos. Now I have to do the backyard.

I swear I can never see a sun rise or set... however, I watched the moon rise over the cliffs by the river. I'm waiting for it to surpass the tree that's in front of me. I could walk 20 feet to my left and see it, but I really want to watch it rise again, because I could actually see it moving before? It was AWESOME! I wish I had the correct camera, but I apologize, I do not

I took the dog out and saw it. It's very bright, but not all that big -- the harvest moon usually appears much larger.

Once in a very blue moon — Nanci Griffith (the late great)

Saw it through the clouds. Honestly t wasnt that big or bright.

It was beautiful out of our bedroom window. Big, silver and with a few wisps of cloud making it looking very ghostly.

Caught it last night when I took the trash out and it was nice but a little cloudy. This morning it was much clearer and looked very pretty with just a few wisps of cloud nearby. And as others have mentioned it didn't seem to be as large or bright as others.

The size of how big the moon appears is all optical illusion. It depends on the things surrounding your view of it and the position in the sky. The mind's eye sees the sky as a dome. So the moon overhead appears further away and seems smaller than the moon at the horizon, when in fact, the moon overhead is closer to you by the earth's radius than it is at the horizon.

I remember driving home from work one night and the moon seemed so large when I saw it through the trees...I turned a corner and the trees weren't there and suddenly it was much smaller.

We had great views of the moon rising while we were traveling east on State Hwy 60 towards Palm Springs. We had views of various mountains above which the moon was rising, and so the foreground landscape was always changing. Skies were perfectly clear.

Finally, a celestial event and clear skies for it! It was so bright!

Lars, how is the CC house?

Couldn't see it last night, neighbor's trees in the way. I did see it driving home tonight, though.

Here is my attempt at photographing the moon through a window. It was incredibly bright.

I guess we saw the the not anymore super blue moon last night. It was still very cool very full and very pretty. I guess I will have to wait another decade to actually see it at its most full weather permitting.

I finally got to see the moon last night, it's waning so quickly ! But very beautiful and nice to finally see after a summer of our 'midnight sun' ! There will be another super moon on September 29, the last one for 2023 as the moon moves further from earth in its orbit
