Title: Full Moon
Post by: TonyC on June 10, 2017, 09:28:58 AM
It is interesting to note that NZLW (and the Press newspaper) have a full moon down for today and Weather Dispaly have it recorded as yesterday. Is WD not allowing for the time difference?  Which is correct?
Must say it looked pretty full rising out of the sea yesterday.

Not sure if this is the right topic to be posting in, however I'm sure admin will shift it if it's not.

This place looks as good as any Tony, tho perhaps Space etc, seeing as the moon is "out there" ?? Never mind.  :)
My Cumulus reckons full moon today.

Hmmm! I guess I probably need to upgrade my WD. Always reluctant while things appear to be ok, but looking at the version history, mine (ver 10.37R build74) is a bit old like Sept 2013 and there was even a change in the Sun/Moon stuff today.
A project for tomorrow methinks.
