Yes — it was a full moon last night.

Was it a full moon last night?

  • The February 2026 full moon, often called the Snow Moon , reaches its peak illumination on Sunday, February 1, 2026, at 22:09 UTC.
  • Because the Moon appears full for about 1–2 nights around the exact peak, the night of February 1, 2026 is considered a true full moon night.

So if by “last night” you mean the night going into Sunday, February 1, 2026, then yes, that was a full moon. 🌕

Quick scoop: what kind of full moon?

  • Name: Snow Moon (traditional name for February’s full moon).
  • Illumination: About 100% around 22:09 UTC on Feb 1, 2026.
  • Constellation: Appears in Cancer , near the Beehive Cluster (M44) for many observers.

Many sky guides note that the Moon still looks visibly full on the nights just before and after the exact peak, so even if you looked slightly earlier or later, it very likely looked full to you.

TL;DR: The Snow Moon was full on the night of February 1, 2026, so yes — last night was a full moon. 🌕
