But I never saw them all rolled up into one unusual phenomenon, as I did Sunday night. As a heavy thunderstorm was approaching from the West, I first noticed at the very edge of the storm cloud an unusual stream of color, a mix of pink and blue. More like a ribbon than a rainbow.
I watched it for a while, and over time the colors kind of swirled together, as if they were being stirred up/ Reminded me of the great spot on Jupiter, then it took on the shape more like an eye, with streams of color visible above and below it, swirling around a focal point.
The pictures don’t do it justice, of course, but at at least convey’s a sense of what I saw. Click for the larger picture and you’ll have a better idea) Not sure what it is. My best guess is sunlight being dispersed through clouds at different levels, at different angles, to create this multi-hued sense of motion. That’s my guess, anyway.
But being so unusual, I took this “eyebow” as some good omen.
