A full moon is an astronomical instant, not an all-night state. This tool checks whether the calculated full-moon instant falls on your local calendar date and separately shows how illuminated the Moon will appear tonight.
The Moon can look essentially full for more than one evening even when the exact full-moon instant occurred hours earlier or will occur hours later.
