Moonbow Predictions

The
Moon
bow in Kentucky
usually occurs 2 days before and 2 days after
the
Full
Moon
if
the
other
conditions are
met.
For a
moonbow
to occur
,
several things must
happen. Good weather, water temperature, sufficient rising
mist, wind speed and direction, water clarity, a clear sky
and some moon light. It may occur before 2 days on
certain
Full Moons
or
any
strongly moonlit
night.
Lots of weird and bizarre
science in the United States of America!
The
Full Moon rises at
sunset.

Harvest and Hunter's
Moon
The
Harvest Moon
, the full moon nearest the
autumnal equinox, ushers in a period of several successive
days when the Moon rises soon after sunset. This phenomenon
gives farmers in temperate latitudes extra hours of light in
which to harvest their crops before frost and winter.
The next Full Moon after Harvest
Moon is called the Hunter's Moon. It is accompanied by a
similar but less marked phenomenon.

The best
time to see the
moonbow is just
after the moon has cleared the ridge looming over the falls.
It is usually visible about an hour after night fall
beginning two nights before a full moon. Then, add about 30
minutes for each day, since the moon rises progressively
later.

A Lunar eclipse can only happen on a full moon. The
next lunar eclipse is scheduled in 2010.
