A "halo" appeared around the moon on October 6, visible in Gloucestershire, UK.

Halos are formed when light refracts or bends while passing through ice crystals from cirrus clouds at a high level.

Folklore states that a lunar halo is the precursor of impending unsettled weather, especially during the winter months. This is sometimes true, as cirrus and cirrostratus clouds generally precede rain and storm systems.
