Default full moon

Would it be true to say that temperatures always seem to drop especially on
full moon periods is there any correlation i wonder. Whenever we have been
camping and its been a full moon the nighttime temp seems to drop even more.
tempal effect as opposed to tidal ?

cheers

Mike

But it needs to be clear to *see* the full moon, and clear nights are
colder...

Could it be that you only notice the full moon when the sky is clear,
and that clear nights tend to be colder than cloudy ones?

See where you are coming from but it always seems a lot colder on a clear
night when the Moon is up
