text: The lunar effects on tides are actually quite predominant on the effects of weather and air so to speak it is actually barometric pressure that is affected by not directly my lunar pull. The lunar pull on water affects the variable barometric pressure. The tides also play into this as currents affect wind patterns High and low pressure spots therefor affecting barometric pressure. (the high ad lows are actually descriptives of barometric pressure areas so it is kinda redundant.) You should look at NOAA web sites. You might be able to fine very good layman's answer.
