Default Lunar Weather

Hi,

I was driving home tonight by the light of the nearly full moon, and piles
of low cumuliform clouds swirled around the stars. Unusual for this time of
year, especially here in Colorado. I started to wonder: does the moon affect
the weather? If so, how? I have heard that it's more likely to rain during
certain phases, and I've noticed in my own backyard that it tends to be
cloudier during the first quarter than any other time. Does its gravity
affect the bouyancy of warm air? Is it a myth? Or merely something which we
have recognized but don't really understand?


Is this a troll?
