India, Sept. 18 -- The Harvest Moon is approaching this weekend, and people across the US may be wondering when exactly they can see it.

The answer is simple for several major US states. The 2026 Harvest Moon falls on Saturday, September 26, including the major states of the US like Connecticut, Michigan, California, New York and Florida. The exact moment of the Full Moon changes by time zone, but the date remains September 26 in these states.

According to Time and Date, the Moon reaches full illumination at 12:49 p.m. EDT on September 26. In Los Angeles, the same event occurs at 9:49 a.m. PDT. Since the Moon will be below the horizon for many people at the moment of peak illumination, the best viewing opportunity will come after sunset...
