Northernmost (and southernmost) Moons come in cycles of some 18.5 to 19 years. This year, the northernmost Moon happens on September 14, at 9:27 p.m. Eastern Daylight Time. The last northernmost Moon fell on Sept. 15, 1987, and the next one will be on March 7, 2025. The Moon will be underneath the horizon at this time.
Regardless, on September 15 there’ll be a Moon that rises and sets considerably farther north, and climbs much higher in the sky, than the Sun ever does on the June solstice. For the rise/set times for the Moon in your area, click here, and for the Moon's rise/transit/set times click here. Northernmost (and southernmost) Moons take place when the Moon is at or near quarter phase, one week before and/or after an eclipse, and within (at most) two weeks of an equinox.
