Summer 2017 in central Nebraska. I'll bring beer.
But it also will be visible out around Murphy, NC.
And "harvest moon" has nothing to do with how close to Earth the moon is - it's just a full moon at threshing time that provided light before headlights were invented. That hunormous size of a rising full moon (or sun) is a trick of the brain. A green pea held out near arm's length will blot out one of those equally well as it will a full moon high in the sky in February.
