My mention of the Full Beaver Moon Tuesday night apparently stirred up some curiosity about where these names come from, and what they mean.  Now, I don't come up with the names, or even determine which one occurs when....I leave that up to the ultimate authority on weather folklore...The Old Farmer's Almanac.  If you want to read more about the Full Moons during the year, and some information about them, take a look at the information they present!

I have noticed that there are some discrepencies among the lists you look at, even within the Almanac itself, which does cause a bit of confusion.  One list, for example, has the November Full Moon listed as the Full Hunter's Moon, while another lists it as the Full Beaver Moon. Either way....it's a full moon!

As Karli mentioned in her afternoon blog, we're putting together our winter forecast, and will have it ready in the next two weeks. This is going to be an interesting forecast as there is some disagreement among the weather crew about where the winter is heading...so our annual roundtable should be a spirited one this year!  Make a note on your calendar for November 20th, and you can see what we come up with!

Have a great Thursday, and enjoy the nice warm air on the way!
