Depending on the lunar cycle, the night time side would notice the moon become dim.

Well technically there’d be earth glow so it wouldn’t be totally dark.

Earthshine from where? That’s still reflected sunlight! Maybe a tiny amount of cityshine, but the light pollution from those same cities will far outshine that.

Ok yeah you’d definitely want any story to have the sun disappear take place at night, with a full moon, possibly a large harvest moon for ambiance. The moon disappears and within minutes you’re bombarded with calls…

Doubt anyone would notice the moon getting dim when the fucking sun disappears in the same second.
