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.

Louisville could see the return of snowfall before Wednesday's aptly named full "Snow Moon" arrives in the skies above Kentucky. The National Weather Service in Louisville issued both a winter storm watch and a flood watch for parts of south central Kentucky through Tuesday night with 1-2 inches of snow possible Monday evening through Tuesday.
