Nice sun dog?
Not sure if Im using the right name. This evening in Guildford I saw
what looked like a short bit of rainbow to one side of the sun. I thought sun dogs were more of a 'bright coloured spot' whereas this one seemed to extend in a rainbow arc upwards. It seemed to be partly obscured by a cloud in front of it. The general sky around the 'rainbow' seemed hazy - ice crystals?? Was this a sun dog? Thanks  -- Sarah ******************************************* Strict strong stringy Stephen Stretch slickly snared six sickly silky snakes. |

Still nice to have seen it -- Sarah ******************************************* Strict strong stringy Stephen Stretch slickly snared six sickly silky snakes. |
