New Moon Observation on June 30, 2022

Today, JUN 30 is the 30th day of the 3rd month and it is the first day the first sliver of the new moon could possibly be visible to the naked eye in Israel. Therefore, observers in Israel will be looking for the Renewed Moon of the 4th month around sunset (7:48pm IST / 12:48pm EDT). Since today is the 30th day of the month, whether or not the moon is sighted today, new moon day will be from sunset JUL 1 to sunset JUL 2 by default, because months can only have 29 or 30 days.

The Renewed Moon of the 4th month (tammuz) is “likely” to appear over the western horizon of Jerusalem between 7:34pm and 8:26pm (IDT) / 12:34pm and 1:26pm (EDT) on THU JUN 30, 2022. The moon should be very easy to see with 2.54 (2.83)% Illumination and 84 min lag time (time interval between sunset and moon set).
