Default Biggest Full Moon of 2009

If your skies are clear check out the biggest brightest full moon of 2009 tonight!

Best viewing is at sunset - I hope someone gets a chance to see it for us in Maine are forcast for cloud cover and 6" - 8" of snow coming our way!

Hey YB!! I saw that on the news, but it's snowing lightly now, so don't think I'll get a glimpse of it.

My yard was almost all snow free and then since yest, we have gotten a few inches, so I'm back in the Winter freakin Wonderland!!!

Um, the moon got bigger? We have many moons of different sizes? Is it Pluto?

We have been given a forecast for chance of snow: 30%. Since it's definitely snowing as I type, does that mean we have 130% snow? Is it like 3.0 by volume Coors?

If that moon hits my eye like a big pizza pie, I'll report it as soon as I can remove the raw steak from it. Hmmmm, a steak-out for moon watching. My neighbors' kids mooned me once.

We have been in Winter Wonderland since before Christmas! And I am thinking we might see grass come March or April!

We are 70% chance of snow later tonight but going to get 6 - 8" is that the weatherman's way of covering his butt?

The sun is shining, not a cloud in the sky and the thermometer says 23.4 degrees! HEAT wave here in Maine!

I was looking at it last night when it first came up, with my binoculars. Don't have a telescope. It was WAY cool.
