I didn't know anything about the big moon till I heard it on the news this morning. Of course we wouldn't have been able to see it here anyway - overcast and light rain most yesterday and last night too. :(

The "super moon" actually woke me up in the middle of the night. I had not rolled my shades down and the light was so bright - it was really gorgeous!!

I got to see it for awhile, but it clouded up before it was at its best.:(

It woke me up too.

So did all the hair all over my body and the urge to howl was pretty annoying, too.:eek:;)

It has been cloudy and gloomy here for the last week (when did I move to Seattle?) so I only saw it on TV.:(

It was too cloudy for me to see it.

I noticed it, too. It was amazing to see! :eek: :) Perhaps that's why I didn't sleep well.

The distance to Earth varies with approx. 50.000 km. At Saturday the distance between the Earth and the Moon was down to 356.577 km. That means a difference of 15% and a difference in light at more than 30%.

We had a great view of it...it was like daylight all around us. Just awesome. I was long asleep but brightness woke me even with the blinds closed.
