WRAL ^

According to the Farmer's Almanac, there hasn't been a nationwide Friday the 13th full Moon since Oct. 13, 2000, and it won't happen again until Aug. 13, 2049.

In the Eastern time zone, the exact moment the full Moon occurs will be early Saturday, Sept. 14 at 12:33 a.m. For everyone else, the Moon will be its fullest before midnight on Friday, Sept. 13. Either way, the moon will appear full from Thursday night through Sunday morning, NASA says

I’m on a law enforcement social media site and they’re wigging out about it.

Not good for Portsmouth Island south of Ocracoke in the OBX.

Hurricane Doiran sliced and diced dozens of new inlets into the barrier island. Full moon high tides will continue deepening and widening the larger ones.

Used to be able to drive the full length of the island in a 4x4. Impossible now.

Sweet surprise this morning! Thanks!
One of my favorites, they were at their best with Mel Collins.
My latest obsession is Phil Manzanera ...didn’t realize back then that it was Mel in the band, must’ve just assumed it was Andy Mackay.

“Even a man who is good of heart
And says his prayers at night
May become a WOLF when the wolf-bane blooms
And the moon is full and bright.”

By Eastern Standard Time, it will still be Friday at the moment of full moon.

This is the first time this is happening in this millennium. (2000 was the last year of the 20th century and the last year of the second millennium.)
