We’ve got a really bright, full one near Buffalo, but not blue... I would love to see one! This July 4 th, we had a large, orange-red, low-hanging moon... I stopped on the way home from a friend’s, saw it, and took a picture. Stuff like that is so cool!
You’re seeing it! The “blue moon” means IIRC, the second full moon in the same month. Fairly rare.
I was reading the thread with the newspapers of WWII+70 years on FR, and they said bombing of Toyko was done under a bright moon. I had to check - it wasn’t a blue moon.

Only a few more days and we will be reading about the A-bombs. After reading day after day of all the new towns being bombed, with an average of 50% of each city and town destroyed, the A-bombs will practically seem merciful to me and get them to end the war.
