Yeah, from what I understand its when the suns rays and the moons meet at a certien angle and it makes the ring then like you said the weather goes to poop.

Its was warm and rainy yesterday and tonight the tempure dropped a bunch.

we call them moon dogs up here in Canada. We see a lot of them. It's even cooler seeing them in the daytime around the sun.
