Extreme high tides this weekend, Hunter’s Moon signals Autumnal equinox
Tide pool season begins
A surfer waits on the rocks for break in a large set of waves.
Extreme High Tides Are Occurring This Weekend, Saturday’s will be +7.09 feet at 9:18 am, Sunday will be +7.19 feet at 9:50 am, and Monday +7.05 feet at 10:22 am. If we get large waves like we saw last weekend this could be a recipe for coastal flooding.
OB tide pools
October’s Lowest Tides, Coinciding With The Afternoon Hours two days in a row, usher in several months of excellent tidepooling opportunities. A not-so-low -0.95–foot tide occurs at 3:59 pm on Saturday the 28th, and a -1.05-foot low at 4:42 pm on Sunday, the 29th. The next several months will feature several episodes of still-lower tides during the afternoon. The region’s best-known places to view intertidal life include Cabrillo National Monument and areas up the coast from La Jolla Shores.
When the moon is close to the horizon it appears to be larger, it also travels through more atmosphere often giving it an orange color.
This Year, The Harvest Moon Rose On September 29, so the Hunter’s Moon appears one lunar cycle later, on October 28. And like the Harvest Moon, the Hunter’s Moon will rise around the same time for several nights, so look for it on Friday, October 27. Full moons are usually named by Native American or European American folklore; the Harvest Moon and Hunter’s Moon are unique because they are not — rather, they are tied to the autumnal equinox. As the Moon sits over the horizon around sunset, it may appear larger and more orange than usual. This is just the “Moon Illusion,” which makes the Moon appear bigger than it is.
