What time does the moon rise tonight in 31537?

Well, you left me with a bunch of research to do, just to understand your question. But after tracking down the date and your location, I think I have what you want. Of course, it's obsolete now, but that doesn't bother me if you're OK with it. The time of moonrise changes every day/night. (Notice that in the course of roughly one month, the moon rises during the day as many times as it rises during the night.) On the night you posted your question ... November 16, 2011 ... the moon rose in Folkston/Homeland, Georgia, at 10:40 PM. On the next night, November 17, the time of moonrise is 11:41 PM. And if that's not worth a TP, well . . .

What time does the harvest moon rise?

For 2009 Not a few people are under the impression that the harvest moon remains in the night sky longer than any of the other full moons we see during the year, but that's not so. What sets the harvest full moon apart from the others is that farmers at the climax of the current harvest season can work late into the night by the moon's light. It rises about the time the sun sets, but more importantly, at this time of year, instead of rising its normal average 50 minutes later each evening, the moon seems to rise at nearly the same time each night. For example, at New York City, moonrise on Oct. 3 is at 5:58 p.m. On Oct. 4, moonrise is 6:24 and on Oct. 5, it's 6:53. So compared to the normal 50 minutes per night, around the time of the harvest moon moonrise comes about 27 minutes later.
