Tonight – September 24, 2018 – showcases the first full moon of the autumn season for the Northern Hemisphere and the first full moon of spring for the Southern Hemisphere. Because this is the closest full moon to the September autumn equinox in the Northern Hemisphere, this particular September full moon is known as the Harvest Moon.
Although the full moon happens at the same instant worldwide, the clock reads differently by time zone. The moon turns full on September 25, 2018, at 2:52 Universal Time. But for the mainland United States, the instant of full moon actually comes to pass on the evening of September 24, 2018, at 10:52 p.m. EDT, 9:52 p.m. CDT, 8:52 p.m. MDT, 7:52 p.m. PDT, 6:52 p.m. AKDT (Alaska Daylight Time), and 4:52 p.m. HST (Hawaiian Standard Time).
