The Moon should be rising literally as I type this… it should be over Arrowsmith soon.

It’s a beautiful night out there for March! Get out and see the full moon at its Perigee, the closest it’s been to the Earth in 18 years!

  1. I drove across town last night and saw the moon just over the mountains to the South East. It was slightly obscured by passing clouds, but very bright indeed!
