4. GREAT! We missed it here in So Cal. Rain! All night long! When it wasn't completely overcast.

That's okay - it rained the night the radioactivity arrived from Japan and the AQMD and other air quality monitors said the levels were back down to background-only.

Heck. We need the rain anyway. May be a lot of it in the next couple of days. So that's okay. I saw it the night before last and it was pretty damn big. Even up at midheaven.

7. Thank you! I was hoping someone would post pictures of

the Super Moon. We could not see it here in Ojai, CA as it was raining last night. I was so disappointed.

It is beautful.

8. Gorgeous!

dumb question: are these photo-shopped?

I mean, these images are surreal! I live in Northern California, and we had a huge major storm last night, so i missed even so much as a glimps of the super-moon.

Also, these would be fun to share on facebook, are these public domain?

9. all of these, as far as I know

Came from websites posting photos of the Supermoon. I hope they are accurate.



The one with the observatory.. I kept thinking.. of an Astronomer yelling "Pull back the lens!! You are too close!! TOO CLOSE!!" :rofl:

10. Wow! I wish I would have stayed up later - or gone to the right

viewpoint for the 'moonrise'

Thanks for these! Did you see it, AsahinaKimi?

[AsahinaKimi]

12. No.. Northern California was like this...

[gateley]

14. That has its own beauty - LOVE thunder/lightening storms! Glad

we have pics and the internet. Thanks again!! :hi:

15. exactly

and winds to boot.. woke up this morning with trees, and potted plants and all manner of debree shrewn all over the place.

[AsahinaKimi]

17. OMG YES !

32mph winds last night kept rattling my house! I kept expecting something to slam though the window.

27. Very true report on us here.

And even if the moon was peeking out between the clouds (which I don't think it was) I was too busy dodging falling tree branches to look up in the sky.

[AtomicKitten]

19. Spectacular!

The fog in SF was on crack last night. Visibility about 1/2 inch.

20. Whenever there is any celestial event it is always cloudy or rainy where I live.

No different this time.

23. It was here, too. nt

22. People often forget--if they even realize--that the

Earth and Moon are a dual planetary system. These pictures make it hard not to remember that the Moon is so large that it is actually a planet itself.

24. Lovely! n/t

25. THose are great photos

[MiddleFingerMom]

26. Beautiful pictures!!! The one with the saguaros reminded me of the first night I spent in the desert

.
.
.
...outside of Tucson about 30 years ago.
.
.
.
I watched in AWE as this HUMONGOUS yellow moon emerged very slowly from behind the mountains.
.
.
.
It's the type of scene everyone should have a chance to see at least once in their lives.

Thanks, AsahinaKimi!!!
