Moonrise over Washington, D.C. A rising moon lines up with the east end of a street for a few evenings, which is why compass direction matters as much as the clock time. “Moonrise Over Washington”, NASA/Aubrey Gemignani, Public domain
Enter a Oregon ZIP above for tonight’s moonrise and moonset on your local clock, with the compass direction of each. The table below lists moonrise for Portland, Eugene and Bend on every full moon night.
The table lists the next 12 full moons on Pacific time, starting with Hunter’s Moon on October 25 at 9:12 PM PDT. The tool above counts down to the next one for your ZIP.
The phase is the same everywhere, so a full moon is full for all of Oregon at the same instant. What changes is the clock time and the direction of moonrise and moonset, which depend on where you stand.
No. A moon near the horizon looks larger because of how the eye judges size against trees and buildings, and the disc measures the same. A supermoon is different, because the moon really is closer by up to about 14 percent.
The table gives moonrise for Portland, Eugene and Bend on each full moon night, on the local clock of each city. Oregon is on Pacific time except a corner of Malheur County, and a full moon rises over the Cascades for Portland and over open desert for Bend.
Phase times are the U.S. Naval Observatory’s table for 2026 and 2027. Moonrise, moonset and direction are computed for each city from the moon’s position, and the names follow the Old Farmer’s Almanac.
