Moving Rainbow

Cliff Mass Weather Blog - Thursday, March 3, 2011, 20:31

Here is a really interesting video of yesterday’s convection at Dale Ireland’s location in Silverdale, Washington. Beyond the showers and sunbreaks, there are many shots of rainbows. Note how the rainbows shift to the right during the day. The reason why? The sun is shifting direction and the center of the rainbow is always on the opposite side of the sky from the sun.

Next blog I will tell you where you can find the pot of gold at the end of a rainbow.

A reminder–I will be talking at Ivar’s next week (Wednesday, March 9) at 7 PM to talk about the great storm that destroyed the restaurant in 2003 (see sidebar). THIS ONE WONT BE CANCELLED DUE TO SNOW!!!!
