THE world could be in for a bumpy ride next week with an "extreme supermoon" predicted to cause weather chaos.
The moon will pass just 221,567 miles away on March 19 - its closest for 18 years.
Some amateur scientists warn it could trigger extreme conditions all over the world, from earthquakes to tsunamis.
Previous supermoons - or "lunar perigees" - happened in 1955, 1974, 1992 and 2005. Each year had extreme weather events.
TV weatherman John Kettley said: "A moon can't cause a geological event like an earthquake, but it will cause a difference to the tide.
"If that combines with certain weather conditions, then that could cause a few problems for coastal areas."
