February’s full moon, called the snow moon, is also the final full moon of meteorological winter. Here’s how to see the moon as it reaches its peak Wednesday.

The snow moon will arrive Feb. 12, 2025, according to NASA. The full moon in February was dubbed the snow moon due to the heavy snowfall typically seen this time of year, according to the Old Farmer's Almanac, which first began publishing names for full moons in the 1930s.

The second full moon of the year − appropriately called the snow moon − will reach its peak Wednesday evening.
