I can see your Halo!!
Yes the moon has a halo!!! If you were out last night you may have noticed a ring or "halo" around the moon. This ring around the moon is caused by high upper-level clouds called Cirrus Clouds. These clouds are made of ice crystals. These ice crystals bend the moon light shining through these ice crystals and create a ring, or halo, around the moon. There is a saying, "ring around the moon, rain comes soon," sure enough it rained today.
