Did You See the Rare Double Rainbow?

Did you see a rainbow on your way home tonight?

By Rick Nagel, Editor of Geneva Patch

I'm not sure if you can see it on this photo or not (posting on the iPhone), but I spotted this rare double rainbow and wondered if others had seen it, as well. I snapped this photo at about 3:55 p.m. today (Monday, Dec. 23). 

By "double rainbow" I mean two short, vertical rainbows that appear miles apart. More likely, they're the "tips" of one rainbow arch.

Let us know in the comments field if you have a more-educated explanation of today's colorful weather event. :)
