Extreme values for the Full Moon distance occur when
Full Moon is close to perigee or apogee passage, and
long-term extremes are in the months near to Earth's
perihelion passage (closest approach to the Sun, when
the Sun's tidal effects are strongest) in the first
few days of January.
For 2004 to 2023, the extreme values are (apogee and
perigee calculated by my Planet
Applet):
