The moon over Waihee-Waiehu on August 7, 2026

On the night of August 7, 2026, the moon over Waihee-Waiehu is a waning crescent at 30% illumination, rising at 12:35 AM toward 62° ENE — a 30%-lit disc clearing the horizon in the east. It sets at 2:41 PM.

That phase shapes the whole night. At 30% illumination the moon throws a soft, raking light that models terrain without overpowering the sky. For dramatic scale, shoot it low near the horizon — around moonrise at 12:35 AM — where it reads largest against buildings, hills or trees.

To keep the sky its deepest blue, work the window right after sunset (7:00 PM) into blue hour (7:17 PM – 7:24 PM), when the sky still holds colour but the moon already stands out. Waihee-Waiehu's 20.9°N latitude means the moon's nightly path — and how high it climbs — shifts with the seasons; the planner tracks tonight's exact rise, set and bearings.
