Has the moon not been sighted for April 2020? It is very clearly visible in SE US.

It was not sighted on April 24th as expected, but mathmatically started since Friday April 24th was the 30th day.
Thank you for helping me keep up with the dates. I’m not jewish by blood but I definitely believe the scriptures.
