Exciting Sighting

February 28, 2014

As Peter and I were driving back from Sac this morning, there was a growing gap in the clouds overhead and I said, “start looking for rainbows.”  (Perhaps not the thing to say to your 15-year-old who’s driving in rush hour traffic on the interstate in the rain–two new-driver firsts.)

Sure enough, one started to materialize dead ahead.  Ho hum, as rainbows go:

But then this happened:

It was a double rainbow, the outer rainbow of which was fainter and less complete. At its peak, however, the inner had dark, crisp color bands. Very spectacular!
