Why Today’s Full ‘Cold Supermoon’ Will Rise Higher Than Any Other
- On December 4, 2025, Tennessee residents should look east around sunset to see the Cold Moon, the final full moon and supermoon of 2025, peaking at 6:14–6:15 p.m. ET, though rain may obstruct views in Knoxville, Memphis and Nashville.
- Because the moon is near perigee, on December 4 it will be around 17,000 miles closer and appear up to 10% larger, while the Cold Moon name comes from the Mohawk, an Iroquoian-speaking tribe.
- If skies are clear, a horizon moon illusion and an orange/yellow tint may make the December supermoon seem larger; it is the third supermoon of 2025.
- Local weather may affect viewing, as a slight chance of rain Thursday night in Knoxville, Memphis and Nashville could obstruct the full moon, which appears nearly full on Wednesday and Friday.
- Alongside the supermoon, the Geminids peak December 14 with 120 meteors per hour, and the Ursids peak December 22 with a dozen meteors per hour.
