I've never seen it this big ,or bright, before. For those of you that like sky watching, it's worth a trip outside, to get a peek

I can't remember what this phase of the moon is but local radio said it will get brighter each night until the full moon.  I will watch each night.  Hope the sky stays clear of clouds so we can see it.

I was just saying how beautiful it is tonight. Tuesday night it's going to look even bigger. Don't forget to look!

I'm not sure what phase it is, but it looks full , so it must be in the final stages, of a waxing moon

Tonight and tomorrow night, just after sunset, the moon will be the largest and closest and best-viewed. It's the biggest closest moon since 1948 and there won't be another like this until 2034, so this is it for most of us.

 

I have to wait about 2-1/2 more hours.

I saw it out the kitchen window.  The sky was nice and clear.
