Lunar Perigees

Sounds like a difficult techy term, but it's just saying that the moon will pass just 221,567 miles away on March 19. Supposedly its closest for 18 years.
What's more interesting, or not interesting, is that previous lunar perigees (aka supermoons; 1955, 1974, 1922 and 2005) all were accompanied with extreme weather events.
