Here it is so you don’t miss it: The last supermoon of the year is approaching

We have been observing a natural sight in the night sky since yesterday. The so-called harvest moon shines on Friday. This is the full moon closest to the beginning of autumn. In the past, light was used to harvest until nightfall. Today the moon brings joy to its fans.

This year’s harvest moon is expected to be particularly impressive. This is also a supermoon; last one of the year. Supermoons are about 14 percent larger and up to 30 percent brighter than the year’s smallest full moon.

Clear vision on Friday night

The moon will reach full size on Friday morning. On the night from Thursday to Friday, you could already see the bright moon, which looked like a full moon, in the sky. It’s worth looking out the window, especially when the weather is clear across Switzerland. “We have a few obscured clouds, but that shouldn’t spoil the moon’s view,” Roger Perret explains to Meteonews’ Blick.

Even on Saturday night the moon will still shine brightly and appear large. But then not everyone will be able to see it. “Things are not looking good on Saturday night. There are heavy clouds, especially in the north,” said Perret. It is possible for the moon to shine occasionally. But in general it becomes quite difficult to observe it. In the south, things look different. “You can see it there,” Perret continues. In Ticino The chance of seeing the moon is particularly high. (female)
