Frequently asked questions

What time is moonrise in Washington DC today?

Tuesday, September 21, 2027: moonrise 10:15 PM, moonset 12:49 PM (EDT).

Why can't I see the Moon exactly at moonrise time?

Moonrise is when the Moon's centre crosses a flat horizon. Buildings, trees, hills or haze near the horizon delay the first sighting, often by 10–20 minutes — for Karwa Chauth or Sankashti, wait until the Moon is clearly visible.
