A vertical rainbow, as photographed by Janet Pierucci.

Janet Pierucci noticed this gorgeous site, a vertical rainbow, also called a Sun Dog or a Parhelion.

A Sun Dog is a rainbow in the sky but there are no rain clouds. It is formed when light rays pass through high cirrus clouds. The ice crystals in the clouds act as prisms and, if conditions are right, you get this rare phenomenon.

Thanks to Janet for allowing me to share her photo with you here.

ooo, it really warmed up today! Some high clouds have also made it muggy. Close to 80 degrees at our place in Anchor Bay.

Spring doesn't know...
