February’s full snow moon in 2022 peaks on Feb. 16 but there are storms in the forecast for some parts of the U.S. Here’s the best time to see it.

FILE - Snow Moon of February 2021. The full moon of earth natural satellite as seen illuminating the lunar light in the night sky from Eindhoven, Netherlands, on Feb. 27, 2021 The full moon names come from a number of places, including Native American, Colonial American and European sources, the Farmer’s Almanac says.

February’s full moon name is known as the snow moon due to the typically heavy snowfall that happens in February — noting how the month is the country’s snowiest. "In the 1760s, Captain Jonathan Carver, who had visited with the Naudowessie , wrote that the name used for this period was the Snow Moon, because more snow commonly falls during this month than any other in the winter,‘" the Farmer’s Almanac says.

Other names for February’s full moon have included the bald eagle moon or eagle moon, traditionally referred to as this by the Cree. The Dakota also call this the roose moon, Farmer’s Almanac says. The moon will reach peak illumination at 3:20 a.m. ET, Farmer’s Almanac says — noting how skygazers should look for the spectacularly bright moon as it rises above the horizon that evening.
