| The Harvest Moon is the closest full moon to the Fall Equinox, which occurred September 22, 2017. This year the full moon of October (10/5/2017; 13 days apart) was closer to the Fall Equinox than the full moon of September (9/6/2017; 16 days apart). The October Harvest full moon rose at 6:47 p.m. Thursday, October 5, 2017 with the best chance for observation, compared to the rest of the overnight period, which was mostly cloudy. The full moon sets at 7:38 a.m. Friday, October 6, 2017. |
The outer limits of the Harvest Moon are September 7 and October 8 with the average probability of an October Harvest Moon occurring about once every four years. The last October Harvest Moon occurred in 2009, but the next October Harvest Moon will occur in 2020. November's moon name is the Beaver Moon, because beavers are busy building their winter dams, preparing for cold conditions. |
