Brace yourselves and batten down the hatches because "a bad moon is rising" this week... the Full Thunder Moon!
The full moon this week occurs on July 15 and unofficially marks the middle of the summer, or the middle of the hot weather season.
Will this full moon cause mere fair weather cumulus clouds to grow into violent thunderstorms? No.
Will there be lightning bolts flying out of the moon? No.
Could there be claps of thunder from nearby thunderstorms? Perhaps.
Despite the ominous inference, the reason for this full moon's nickname is simply that thunderstorms are quite frequent during the month of July.
