PUYALLUP, WA - The final supermoon of 2019 will rise over Puget Sound beginning Monday night. But will the weather cooperate to allow us to see it?

We're in a for a clear, warm week, but Wednesday night into Thursday morning will be partly cloudy in across the region. Clouds will continue to thicken on Thursday night, and we're looking at a chance of rain on Friday.

This final 2019 supermoon coincides with the spring equinox on Wednesday. That's why it's being called the "worm moon," because earthworms can now start to move through soil softened by warmer spring temperatures.
Speaking of warm temperatures: highs will hit the lows 70s on Monday and the mid 70s on Tuesday.
