For my area...
Ghosts, witches and goblins will be out in abundance tonight, and a full moon will light their way. Astronomers say that for the first time in 46 years, there will be a full moon on Halloween. The next one won't come until 2020.
The head of the Miami Space Transit Planetarium says tonight's full moon will look like an orange jack-o-lantern rising from the east at dusk. Some astronomers believe jack-o-lantern carving was inspired by the orange October moon, which is caused by dense layers of the earth's atmosphere.
The Seven Sisters constellation, which looks like a small cluster of grapes, will be overhead. In myth, the Seven Sisters grouping has been a signal for the time of year to honor the dead.
Gonna be a great night.. carving pumpkins and passing out candy then watching scary movies... I'll take pictures of me in my pirate costume (arrrrgh!)
