Is it true that the weather changes (good to bad, bad to good) at the full Moon?

My Mother-in-Law is convinced that the phases of the moon and changes in the wind predict the weather pattern until the moon starts to next wax/wane.\n\nAs a scientist I know that this is twaddle.\n\nThe trouble is, she has an uncanny knack of being right.

• Full Wolf Moon - January Amid the cold and deep snows of midwinter, the wolf packs howled hungrily outside Indian villages. Thus, the name for January's full Moon. Sometimes it was also referred to as the Old Moon, or the Moon After Yule. Some called it the Full Snow Moon, but most tribes applied that name to the next Moon.\n\n• Full Snow Moon - February Since the heaviest snow usually falls during this month, native tribes of the north and east most often called February's full Moon the Full Snow Moon. Some tribes also referred to this Moon as the Full Hunger Moon, since harsh weather conditions in their areas made hunting very difficult.\n\n• Full Worm - March Moon As the temperature begins to warm and the ground begins to thaw, earthworm casts appear, heralding the return of the robins. The more northern tribes knew this Moon as the Full Crow Moon, when the cawing of crows signaled the end of winter; or the Full Crust Moon, because the snow cover becomes crusted from thawing by day and freezing at night. The Full Sap Moon, marking the time of tapping maple trees, is another variation. To the settlers, it was also known as the Lenten Moon, and was considered to be the last full Moon of winter.\n\n• Full Pink Moon - April This name came from the herb moss pink, or wild ground phlox, which is one of the earliest widespread flowers of the spring. Other names for this month's celestial body include the Full Sprouting Grass Moon, the Egg Moon, and among coastal tribes the Full Fish Moon, because this was the time that the shad swam upstream to spawn.\n\n• Full Flower Moon - May In most areas, flowers are abundant everywhere during this time. Thus, the name of this Moon. Other names include the Full Corn Planting Moon, or the Milk Moon.\n\n• Full Strawberry Moon - June This name was universal to every Algonquin tribe. However, in Europe they called it the Rose Moon. Also because the relatively short season for harvesting strawberries comes each year during the month of June . . . so the full Moon that occurs during that month was christened for the strawberry!\n\n• The Full Buck Moon - July July is normally the month when the new antlers of buck deer push out of their foreheads in coatings of velvety fur. It was also often called the Full Thunder Moon, for the reason that thunderstorms are most frequent during this time. Another name for this month's Moon was the Full Hay Moon.\n\n• Full Sturgeon Moon - August The fishing tribes are given credit for the naming of this Moon, since sturgeon, a large fish of the Great Lakes and other major bodies of water, were most readily caught during this month. A few tribes knew it as the Full Red Moon because, as the Moon rises, it appears reddish through any sultry haze. It was also called the Green Corn Moon or Grain Moon.\n\n• Full Harvest Moon - September This is the full Moon that occurs closest to the autumn equinox. In two years out of three, the Harvest Moon comes in September, but in some years it occurs in October. At the peak of harvest, farmers can work late into the night by the light of this Moon. Usually the full Moon rises an average of 50 minutes later each night, but for the few nights around the Harvest Moon, the Moon seems to rise at nearly the same time each night: just 25 to 30 minutes later across the U.S., and only 10 to 20 minutes later for much of Canada and Europe. Corn, pumpkins, squash, beans, and wild rice the chief Indian staples are now ready for gathering.\n\n• Full Hunter's Moon - October With the leaves falling and the deer fattened, it is time to hunt. Since the fields have been reaped, hunters can easily see fox and the animals which have come out to glean.\n\n• Full Beaver Moon - November This was the time to set beaver traps before the swamps froze, to ensure a supply of warm winter furs. Another interpretation suggests that the name Full Beaver Moon comes from the fact that the beavers are now actively preparing

The full moon is visible as full anywhere\non earth where it is above the horizon...\nobviously if it is far in the southern\nhemisphere and you are far north, like\nin northern Finland, you may not see the\nfull moon at all... (but if you could it\nwould still appear full)

lmao...yea it's true..but if for some strange reason you do..just wait till the next full moon..you get a chicken foot, a frogs tongue and some witch hazel, put on a burlap bag,stand under the full moon naked by an old oak tree and spin around 3 times. I also have some land i could sell you, call me! lol

Obviously the moon has to be between the Sun and the\nEarth, so maybe they want you to say, "when the Moon is new".\nNote that this is the *opposite* of a full moon.

It looks from your question that you think there's a place where the moon is always overhead. This is not the case. On the other hand, if you are between the tropic of Cancer and the tropic of Capricorn, there will be times when the moon is directly overhead.

The next time there's two full moons in the same month
403265
it happens at the end of any month.because that time the moon is very near to earth.\nred color of moon : because of gasses that are in the atmosphere.

The phases of the moon are the same around the world. What varies is the rise and set time. The US Naval Observatory is a great site for this.

The phases of the moon are the result of the angle the sun and moon make with the earth.  We see a full moon when they are on oposite sides of the earth:\nMoon -- Earth -- Sun\n\nand a quarter moon when the sun and moon are at right angles:\nEarth -- Sun\n  |\nMoon\n\nSince this angle is the same for anyone on earth, the phase is the same as well.

The Pull of both the Moon & the Sun, Yes the sun too has a pull & depending on where both are depends on how strong the pull is hence the different types of tide but the wave itself probably has more to do with the weather, ie strong winds etc.

When there is a full moon, the gravity is stronger (have you ever heard about the full moon affecting the tides?) Tides usually go very high around the full moon.\n\nThe extra pull on gravity makes primates feel slightly uncomfortable (humans and animals) and that causes them to get more agitated and a little more aggressive.  There are usually more fights around the full moon, and people tend to be a little more disagreeable.\n\n\nSame thing on cloudy days.  The air pressure is up and people get a little more irritable.  Know that, and you'll go far.  As people for behaviors on sunny days when it is not a full moon.

the moon goes thru a cycle of 4 phases each month(one a week). They are first, full, third and new.\nThink of a clock(with the earth in the very middle and the sun off to the left).Then first quarter would be down at 6, full would be over at 3, third would be at 12 and new(which is between the earth and the sun) would be at 9.

High tides get higher and low tides get lower.\n\nIf I'm not mistaken... this is what happens at the times of the equinoxes.... the sun and moon line up... pulling the tides to higher highs and lower lows...

HUH? It was a full moon last night...

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'

Yes, when there's a full moon in Txas the moon will also be full in India.  The phases of the moon depend on the angle between the earth, moon and sun, and this angle changes as the moon orbits the earth.\n\nWhile the moon may look like it's in different parts of the sky, the phase that you see on any day will be the same phase that everyone else in the world sees that day.
