Why no rainbow? Empty Why no rainbow?

Post by gelico Tue May 18, 2021 12:52 am



So today i went to the shop and it started pelting down so i took refuge inside and waited till it passed.

when i came out it was still spitting slightly but the sun was out but to my right where it was still raining was so dark to be almost black but no sign of a rainbow

as i walked home i kept looking behind me but at no angle was there a rainbow in sight and the sun was shining directly onto storm and rainclouds where it was still raining

that's the first and only time that there has been sun and rain at the same time and no rainbow


Shocked

I don't think it happens every time. Might have to be a certain direction from the sun.

I dont think there is always a rainbow Gels, not one that can be seen anyway...I always look round for one when the sun comes out when there is rain about...I don't always see one either.

Have this one till you see a proper one. Laughing

I hated it when someone explained rainbows to me as a child. It took away the magic and mystery.
And that sucked.

Even though explanations can take away the mystery and magic of things, I don't think they necessarily have to ruin the sense of wonder you feel at seeing things like that.

I can look at a photo of the rings of Saturn, and even though I know they're made up of ice and rocks, they still look glorious to me.
