Bit of misty cloud, but you can see the moon is big and very bright.

Still pretty impressive around our way, and was as well last night when it was clearer.

Saw it around 18:50hrs. Very impressive, huge yellow thing just hovering on the horizon. It's gone higher in the sky now and is smaller and bright white.

Looked pretty big when walking centurianhound - although I probably wouldn't have noticed if it hadn't been on the news otherwise

Super Moon
Perigree moon this evening for those with clear skies
"Okay, the Moon is 14% bigger than usual, but can you really tell the difference? It's tricky. There are no rulers floating in the sky to measure lunar diameters. Hanging high overhead with no reference points to provide a sense of scale, one full Moon can seem much like any other.
The best time to look is when the Moon is near the horizon. That is when illusion mixes with reality to produce a truly stunning view. For reasons not fully understood by astronomers or psychologists, low-hanging Moons look unnaturally large when they beam through trees, buildings and other foreground objects. On March 19th, why not let the "Moon illusion" amplify a full Moon that's extra-big to begin with? The swollen orb rising in the east at sunset may seem so nearby, you can almost reach out and touch it."Tags: None
