I was hoping to find some SDopers especially in the southern portion of the Delaware Valley who might have noticed a pattern of horizonntal rainbow colors “painting” the cirrus clouds? This phenomena is known as the “circumhorizon arc”, a rare sight occuring under hard-to-achieve conditions. It was accompanied by a more common, 22 degree halo around the sun flanked by two sundogs.
Did anyone else catch a glimpse of this vivid, eye-catching sight? If so, you weren’t imaging things… Please share your observations with me. Specifically, did anyone notice more than two sundogs in the sky (for up to 7 are possible)???
