Rare blue moon will shine on Halloween

NCW – You would think if it is called a blue moon it would at least have the decency to be blue. But such is not the case.

A blue moon is the term applied to the second full moon of the month and this Halloween, Oct. 31, will see the first one since March 31, 2018. They do not come around that often, just once in a blue moon. Over the next eight years there will be three moons: August 31, 2023, May 31, 2026 and Dec. 31, 2028.

It’s almost spooky.
