The first full moon of 2018, also known as the wolf moon, will be the one and only full moon to coincide with a supermoon.

This means that the first full moon of 2018 will be the biggest and there’s a good chance of spotting it tonight on Merseysdie.

The clearest of the weather is expected as midnight approaches, which means we should get a good look at the moon.
