At 17:47 UTC on March 9, the Moon turns full just as it reaches the point on its orbit closest to the Earth. This will make the March Full Moon, traditionally known as Worm Moon, look bigger and brighter, especially during moonrise and moonset. The Moon will look full for a while, so if the clouds clutter your view, just try a few nights before or after.
