Snow moon to illuminate skies tonight but will cloud spoil the view?

Weather fronts moving north-eastwards across the UK have provided rain for many places on Sunday.

Some of this will linger on Sunday night – crucially with a lot of cloud, which could spoil the plans of some moongazers.

The cloudiest conditions are likely to be in east Wales, central, eastern and northern parts of England, and eastern and northern Scotland.

Western Scotland, Northern Ireland, west Wales and the south-west of England have the best chance of seeing some clear spells at times.

Don’t forget you can check the latest hour-by-hour forecast for your area on the BBC Weather website and app.

If you manage to spot the Moon and want to take a picture make sure you turn off the flash on your phone, activate night mode and use ambient light.

If you miss the full moon overnight it will continue to appear nearly full in the few days after the peak.
