Shine on, harvest moon. That’s what the old song says, and that’s what will happen tonight. The full moon rises at 6:38pm, followed by Jupiter only a half hour later. But even better, this is the famed Harvest Moon, everybody’s favourite full moon of the year. This year it falls on the day of the autumnal equinox, meaning that this is the first day of fall. The equinox occurs a few hours after moonrise, at 11:09pm. By then the moon will be high in the sky, shining on for all the folks below who are out to enjoy this lovely autumn evening.
