Full Moon Last Night

Was awakened by a shining something at about 5:18 am. It should have been the sun, but it looks like a full moon. It's barely 32 degrees temperature outside. And, it's chilly in the house. Yesterday was too warm for the snow to stay stuck to the trees. But, a night ago it may have looked something like this. I used a brown bag, old black marker and a little water, then white out for the moon and snow. As I look out the window the shadows coming toward me are quite blue and the snow where the moonlight is hitting is a lighter blue. I can see the sun about to rise in the east (6:12 am). The sky in front of the sunrise is gray-blue to light yellow-white. The light has not hit the snow yet, and the snow is darker than the sky and bluer by far. Trees on the horizon are blocking the light and look very dark.
