The ring is caused by ice crystals high in the atmosphere. The moon's light is refracted off them causing the halo effect. Old wives tales say that the ring predicts bad weather such as rain or snow. You can tell how far away the bad weather is by the number of stars inside the ring. Each star is said to represent 24 hours. So....1 star would mean foul weather will come withing 24 hours.
You can see a ring around the moon in Southern Illinois tonight(Dec. 1, 2009) but it is too foggy to see if there are any stars inside it. How ever, the weather forecast for us is rain turning to snow or sleet tomorrow afternoon so I'd say the moon ring predicted true for us.
