Christmas will feature a full moon this year for the first time since 1977.
The moon is set to rise Christmas Eve at 99 percent and become full at 6:11 a.m. Christmas Day.
The weather, however, might not be ideal for moon watching. Meteorologists predict a front will move through on Christmas with clouds and rain before and after it.
Full moons on Christmas are simply a matter of timing. A full moon happens about once every 29 days. Christmas, of course, comes once a year so the two are destined to coincide.
