The FULL SNOW MOON
Tonight sees February’s Full Moon. Known as the Full SNOW MOON. This was the name given to it by Ancient Native American Indian tribes. This was the moon that occurred often at a cold time of year and when it was snowing. It was also known as the HUNGER MOON a time when the land was frozen and food was scarce.
February’s SUPERMOON
It’s also a SUPERMOON so it appears brighter in the sky and you will see its effects for a few days. A Supermoon happens when the moon is closer to earth. When the moons orbit swings to it’s closest proximity to earth. At this time the moon looks brighter and larger than normal.
Stormy Weather
The arrival of Storm Ciara in the UK and IRELAND could impair viewing of this moon. The Met Office has issued a YELLOW WEATHER WARNING signalling strong winds, ice, rain and snow that could impact visibilty.
Storm Moon
This Moon is also known as The Storm Moon due to the weather often prevalent at this time of year. It’s a FULL MOON weekend and also a STORMY one in some parts. Night Owls, Moon Lovers and Storm Troopers rejoice. But dress appropriately and wrap up warm and expect poor visibility if you are in stormier parts.
Everyone else… HIBERNATE!

We have massive rain events happening on the east and west coasts of Australia at the moment. Might be exacerbated by the full moon 🌕

I couldn’t tell you on your post cause I couldn’t comment. Ha! But it seems to be happening sporadically to people. Must be some kind of technical glitch.

If you look on Reader you can see there is no comments button showing for that post but there is for your other posts. Weird. Hopefully it comes back when you do your next post.

Wow. Would love to see that as you are such a great photographer. 🙂 I wish it was possible to upload photos in the comments section. Would make things so much more interactive and creative. Would be great if they made that possible. You could always post photos of The MOON tonight on your blog though!

I think the holiday has some religious overtones. But I am sure by midnight, there were lines of people waiting to get into the pubs and clubs!
