Rare Harvest Moon on Friday the 13th!
Before fall’s official arrival on September 23, a rare sighting of the Harvest Moon will happen on Friday, September 13th. That’s when a full moon occurs closest to the autumnal equinox. According to Farmers’ Almanac contributing astronomer, Joe Rao, this combination is on average a once-in-a-20-year occurrence, but unfortunately, your next chance to see one in the U.S. is actually on August 13, 2049.
And honestly, is there a better way to get into a spooky mood with a full moon happening on Friday the 13th?
If you’re in the Central, Mountain, or Pacific time zones, you’ll be able to this unique full moon once the sun sets, and don’t be alarmed if you notice it’s a little brighter than usual outside.
But for those of us on the East coast, we’ll see the Harvest Moon just after midnight—at 12:33 a.m. on Saturday, the 14th. And although it may not seem as thrilling, you’ll still be able to witness the Harvest Moon, which actually has the potential to also be a Supermoon or a Micromoon.
