about

August Sturgeon Moon gets it's name from the large sturgeon fish of the Great Lakes and other major bodies of water like Lake Champlain where they are most readily caught. A few tribes knew it as the Full Red Moon because when the moon rises it looks reddish through a sultry haze, or the Green Corn Moon or Grain Moon.

The moon will also arrive at perigee — its closest approach to Earth — only nine minutes earlier at 2:00 p.m. ED,T at a distance of 221,765 miles (356,896 km.) from Earth. So this is the biggest full moon of 2014.

Very high ocean tides can be expected during the next two or three days, thanks to the coincidence of perigee with Full Moon.
