is there a relationship between the phases of the moon and our weather?

All attempts to find a direct correlation between phases of the moon and weather have been unsuccessful.  Direct correlation has been found between phases of the moon and patient cases in hospital emergency rooms, but no cause and effect has been attributed.

No Moon: Very Very Dark at night, The oceans would to move.\n\n2 Moons: Bright, the oceans and weather would be in chaos\n\n3 Moons: Probably chaotic unhevels major differences from now\n\nThe Moon affects everything on earth: From when planets bloom, the when the seasons change, to tidal movements, to Animal behavior, to cosmic catcher(the moon traps: 80% of all meoters inbound for earth)\n\nThe list is profounding\n\nGood question\n\nI added a few links to put it in science terms

Jut wait a bit while I’m consulting my magic crystal ball…….\nhmmm…. ok… it says…weather will be as like as generally it’s every March and April!

There are always two high and two low tides in a 24-hour period, but depending on the particular area you are looking at, you may not get much difference in the two tides when the sun and the moon are on the same side of the Earth.\n\nhttp://www.enchantedlearning.com/subjects/ocean/Tides.shtml

go to this website: http://tycho.usno.navy.mil/vphase.html and type in the information, they'll tell you what the shape is for that day.  Then go to this website to look up the name: http://www.calculatorcat.com/moon_phases/moon_phases.phtml

If the sun and the moon are both visible at the same time, then the first answer of course would be daytime.  However, for the moon to be visible during the day, it has to have risen somewhere in the 6 am - 6pm range.  this means that the moon can be in any phase from new moon through first quarter and almost to full moon.  So, the final answer to the question would be that when the sun and moon are both visible, it is called daytime during the first half of the lunar cycle.

Depends on atmospheric conditions ,small water droplets form into ice crystals in the upper atmosphere. The moon reflects light into these droplets causing refraction of that light, givind a halo effect sometimes even a 'luna rainbow'

The phases of the moon are due to the portion of the moon that is being iluminated by the sun. The phases vary according to the relative position of the moon, Earth and sun. The moon is always there but once a moths it becomes invivible, this phase is know as New moon (or Dark moon), it occurs when the Sun and the moon are on the same side; therefore the the "dark" side of the moon is facing Earth so it appears to be invicible.

Oh yeah, would it ever. Think about all the things the moon affects, everything womens menstration to the tides, if we didnt have a moon all of that would get out of balance. Think about all the organisms that live on the tide line, the ones that need both the air and the water there, how many animals count on that cycle just to live. Also alot of migratory paterns of animals depend on the moon as well. Thats a little off topic, but yeah the moon not being there would totaly screw up weather too!

Somehow I believe it does. We are creatures of our environment. In the wild when there is a full moon, deer and other animals are quite active because they are able to see better during the night. The moon affects the tides and inherently weather patterns as well. I know I feel different on a rainy day than when the sun is shinning brightly outside. We evolved living in nature and though we often live quite disconnected from it now it is the nature of our primal being to be affected by the world around us.

Yes. For two reasons:\n1- Gravity and the causes between earth and moon\n2- Subconscious of people who are influenced under articles, news and stories about this issue! Which I think is stronger than the gravity of moon!

No.  The angle between the sun and the moon as viewed from the earth is 180 degrees for the full moon pahse.  This means that the full moon and the sun are always on opposite sides of the earth.\n\nSince the moon is not always "in plane" with the sun, and your horizon is not perfect, it may be possible on occasion, depending on the geography of the horizon, and one's latitute to see the full moon rising as the sun is setting, or to see the full moon setting as the sun is rising.

Since our moon doesn't cause storms but only the tides, there's no reason to believe that another moon would create havoc. In fact for another moon to exist, I'm sure it would have to me much much smaller than the one we have to remain in a stable orbit.

That has happened for the past week, right? Well, when the moon is behind the earth relatively to the sun, it's seen as full; but along the next 2 weeks the moon is going to make her way in the direction of the sun, so when it's halfway it's seen half-illuminated (in the half looking to the sun), in broad daylight... that's the phase "last quarter moon". Slowly day by day you'll notice the moon gets thinners and thinner, and closer to the sun... until one day you don't see it - that's because she's very near the sun from where we stand - and we see her "behind" which is not illuminated.

For weather you need hot and cold, wind and rain, snow and ice, and sunshine. The earth has plenty of those, and our weather is a world-wide heat-engine driven by the sun, the rotation of the earth, and the tilt of the earth's rotation axis with respect to its orbital plane as it orbits the sun. Thus we get night and day (hot and cold), seasons (rain, snow and ice), and cloudy or sunny days (and cloudy nights too, but it's hard to see clouds at night; and the Moon provides us with somewhat "sunny" nights a few nights every month).\n\nThe moon has plenty of hot and cold and sunshine, so some "weathering" of its surface does occur over billions of years of time, due to heat expansion and cold contraction of "stuff" on its surface. But without wind (no atmosphere) and rain, snow, and ice (no water) there is nothing to cause real weather like we have here on earth.

it will cause some transitory cooling as the moon's shadow tracks across the surface of the earth - this localized cooling may cause some brief wind as the surrounding warmer air interacts with the cooler air in the shadow.  These effects are minor, and short-lived.
