When and where to look for Indiana’s super blue moon

Super Blue Moon 8/19

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — A super blue moon will be visible in Indiana Sunday and Monday night.

And no, the moon won’t appear in the color blue (unfortunately).

A seasonal blue moon refers to the third of four full moons in a single season. This will be the case with our full moon Sunday night and Monday night.

Meanwhile, a monthly blue moon is when two full moons are in the same month. In this scenario, the second full moon of the month is considered a blue moon.

Moonrise on Monday in Indianapolis will be at 8:55 PM. This supermoon will be one of four in a row over the next few months. However, NASA says, our next super blue moon won’t be until 2037.

Sky cover in central Indiana

Cloud cover may be tricky Sunday night with a system finally moving out of our area. Regardless, Monday night is looking fantastic for viewing with mostly clear skies firmly in place.
