It is, from a previous 2015 supermoon.

Supposedly, it's going to be the brightest moon since 1948

I've never seen one like this before

No clue if this is the type of link that gets poofed, but if so at least some of you will see it before it goes.  It's a great article & photos from NPR titled "Closest Supermoon Since 1948."

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.

No wonder we had such a powerful earthquake in New Zealand!     If the moon can affect the tides and they print the calendars, I'm guessing we might get more activity ... just hopefully not in Southern California!

It's still daylight here .... can't wait to see the moon later tonight!

ARRRGGHH!

Feel sorry for me, please 😩

This is the view out my front window. I think I'm OOL tonight - waaaah!

It's just coming up for us now. There is a bit of cloud cover but the moom shining brightly through it and is lovely.

Just posted a picture of the beautiful moon after I had a lesson on exposure from DH who is a terrific photographer. I didn't set up my tripod, but propped up my camera on our fence-line. I live in central West Michigan close to Lake Michigan, FYI.
