According to the folks over at The Old Farmer's Almanac, this month's
Full Buck Moon will rise after sunset tonight and will reach peak illumination
at 10:37 P.M. (EST). Look towards the southeast to watch it rise above
the horizon. July's full moon is called the Buck Moon because the
antlers of male deer are in full growth at this time. According to
the Almanac: "Bucks shed and regrow their antlers
each year, producing a larger and more impressive set
as the years go by."
Hope the moon is visible where you are tonight!
