The moon will come within 222,000 miles of Earth and turn full around 7:30 a.m. EDT, making it the best time to view.
As in any supermoon event, high tides are forecast because of the moons proximity, but the effect is expected to be small.
Forget about the myths that swirl every time a supermoon appears. Theres no link to higher crime or bizarre behavior. Scientists say thats just lunacy.

This prognosticator seems to take it seriously...
One sure thing: lots of babies will be born.

More so than usual . . . don’t forget the solstice was yesterday. lol
Also, the stock market was pulled down because of this.
Super Moon? Is that the new name for the wookie?
Or shrink and grab!

Its not lunacy; its true. Ask any police officer if he crazies come out during a full moon and watch their response

I wonder if there have been studies looking for spikes in the number of incidents of cops shooting dogs or unarmed individuals when a supermoon appears?
Heh, ask any teacher about full moon day.
I guess they did not check out the shootings in Chicago. Than again that is probably normal for that city.
I remember visiting Grandma in Syracuse. Some guy ran into the telephone pole out front, with a stolen car, and ran off. My Dad called the cops, but it took a while for one to show up. The cop apologized for taking so long, told my Dad, “We’ve been real busy, full moon tonight”.
They don’t call them “lunatics” for nothing. The ER used to be a madhouse. Every bi-polar crazed idiot was in attendance
Heh. Good one.
don’t be silly...
...everyone knows that both the earthquakes AND the brighter moon are due to global warming...
Never thought about that, but it makes total sense !
Ask any bartender or cop .
