Why this recommendation

Waxing Crescent at 4% illumination. Only a slim crescent is lit; look soon after sunset or before sunrise, close to the horizon.
The Moon climbs to about 34° around 13:30.
Next moonrise: Thu 12 Nov at 09:25.
Forecast cloud cover averages 3% during the best window, with a 0% chance of precipitation.

Limitations & methodShow

The Moon is above the horizon in daylight. The daylight score is capped because sky contrast is much lower.
The viewing score is a convenience index, not a scientific measurement of sky quality.
The Moon disc on this page is phase-correct but its orientation and surface detail are schematic; libration and parallactic angle are not modelled.
