A Pathfinder Magazine article disputes moon based weather lore. It notes no proof the moon controls weather though ancient proverbs cite appearances like halos and the moon’s shape as indicators. Frosts arise on clear nights, halos reflect ice crystals, and wind signals from a clear moon are due to dust and visibility rather than lunar influence.
