| | | Picture of a "fire rainbow"
We up here in the frozen north are feeling a bit put upon, possibly, with the foot of snow that we got Saturday, the 4 more inches that are expected later today and the below-zero temperatures we're to get later in the week.
Someone here sent me this picture of a "fire rainbow," which I understand can happen under only certain atmospheric conditions. The pic was taken in Idaho; excuse me, please, if you've already seen it a million times before.
Just shows that the Lord does do eminently beautiful things in the northern hemisphere, even when He's freezing us to the bone!

"The heavens declare ..."
I think of the basic formation as "mares' tales" that suggest winter precip is in the forecast. Here's a link that explains the rainbow part: Photo in the News: Rare "Rainbow" Spotted Over Idaho |
