I had no idea there was a super moon today or even what one was... but when I was outside earlier, my friend and I were staring at the moon and talking about how ultra bright and more detailed it was... weird shit lol.

Super moon was cool.
I too noticed how weirdly bright it was a little bit before I heard about the moon being 'super'

was said to have been 14% larger 30% brighter..
Supermoons occur about once every 14 full moons in a full moon cycle.

and on a happy note..

[h=2]Natural disasters[/h] Certain prognosticators have moved the goalposts to within ""1 or 2 weeks of a supermoon"" to suggest a causal relationship with specific natural disasters such as the 2011 Tōhoku earthquake and tsunami and the 2004 Indian Ocean earthquake and tsunami.[SUP][15][/SUP][SUP][16][/SUP] However in both cases the Moon was actually farther from the Earth than average.[SUP][5][/SUP] No evidence has been found of any correlation with major earthquakes.[SUP][17][/SUP][SUP][18][/SUP][SUP][19][/SUP]

Similar here, never heard of it, truly an area I know next to nothing about. Hubby walks in from outside and said you should really see this moon it's spectacular. In my sweetest voice I replied, "I've seen a full moon, before, haven't you?" I really need to get these memos so I can stop making such a fool of myself!

But you know what does predict them? Dogs and cat, I remember the big quake storm of '61 and lost part of my own home in the Landers/Big Bear quake. I flexed to help medical teams during Sylmar etc....

Every single time the pets started to act hinky about a week before but 2-3 days before they become almost psychotic; hiding under the bed etc... trying desperately to get out of the house. The animal shelters would begin overflowing. So when I see that I start prepping for the inevitable.

My dogs would not stop barking last night... I think they were barking at the moon. Did anyone see it? We had a thunderstorm so it was too cloudy for me to really see it.

You looked to late g, you needed to catch it right as it was rising on the horizon, that's when it was it's brightest and biggest. I saw it but forgot my camera lol.
