[Prudie]

Get ready to see the supermoon tomorrow night- although the weather prediction in my area might put paid to seeing it

Thanks Zacs, that helps.

We'll be looking out for it.

Thanks Prudie, Camera + Long Lens all ready to go, just need the right weather conditions now, doesn't sound so good so far though.

Does the date of the "super moon" depend upon your location? Where I live, the moon is 99.3% full on the 10th and 99.5% on the 11th which suggests to me that the "super moon" will be on the 11th.

Thank you for that, I must remember to look out.

I checked a local newspaper, and it does indeed say the 10th. However, I'm still confused because on the 11th the moon is lightly fuller and closer to the Earth.

stuey I've always wondered this. If I see a full moon in the UK is it full West and East, North ans South of us? Probably not.
