Weird moon last night? Pics.
So yeah, Last night about 2am was outside looking at something for car, then i noticed it looked bright as F...
Looked at the moon and was like a huge circle around it, was clouds everywhere except this big circle around the moon which was just clear.
I tried so take some pictures but cant really see how perfect and clear the circle was...
Anyone know why this happened lol?

Not suprised, nothing on the news about it though so I guess not alot of people saw it. I expect someone knows what it was like the MOD. Looks to bright just to be the moon.

It's the moon light refracting off the ice crystals in the upper atmosphere. Not really that uncommon. The news certainty wouldn't report on it lol.

Looks like the moon either has a boner or is flipping you off.
