2018 will have three new moon supermoons in a row, which are defined as new or full moons at or near their closest to Earth for that particular month.
 
2018’s new supermoons fall on June 13, July 13 and August 11. Thus this next new moon on July 13 is a supermoon; in fact, it’s the closest and largest of the three.
 
New moon falls precisely on July 13, 2018, at 2:48 UTC; that is July 12 at 10:48 p.m. EDT, 9:48 p.m. CDT and so on.
 
Happy Super Mooning!
