Have you noticed anyone acting strange recently?

According to Meteorologist Steve Weagle, Tuesday night was the Full Hunters' Moon. The moon was exactly full at 10:06 p.m.

Since the moon arrives at apogee about 10 hours later, this is the smallest full moon of 2011.

In terms of apparent size, it appeared 12.3 percent smaller than the full moon of Mar.19.
