hey, didnt find anything on youtube about that.

I really dont think haarp has anything to do with it though. We learned about this in meteorology class a long time ago.

This is a rare phenomenon- but does happen from time to time.
"it is convex to the sun and is formed by refraction in suitably-oriented ice crystals and may show vivid rainbow colouring, as in this case.

"One of the most spectacular light shows observed on earth," author Donald Ahrens describes the rainbow in his text Meteorology Today. If observed carefully, you would find that the sun is always behind you when you face the rainbow and the center of the circular arc of the rainbow is in the opposite direction to the sun. But there have been sightings that have proved otherwise also.

An astronomer in Cambridge, UK, has captured on camera an "upside down rainbow", which is considered to be an anomaly of nature.

According to a report in the Telegraph, astronomer Dr Jacqueline Mitton captured the freak rainbow near her home in Cambridge. Normal rainbows are made when light penetrates raindrops and re-emerges out the other side in the same direction. But, the inverted types, known as circumzenithal arcs, are caused when sunlight bounces off ice crystals high in the atmosphere, sending the light rays back up.


"The conditions have to be just right: you need the right sort of ice crystals and the sky has to be clear," said Mitton. "We're not sure how big an area it was visible over, but it was certainly very impressive," she added. A spokesman for the Met Office confirmed the inverted rainbows are occasionally spotted in British skies. "It is convex to the sun and is formed by refraction in suitably-oriented ice crystals and may show vivid rainbow coloring, as in this case," he said

Well, we all know about the strange ways of nature and the even stranger creations, the 'upside down rainbow' is just another sense of humor by god, perhaps when the sky 'cries' with happiness!

Have a good one.

Hello, there is another weather anomaly caught on video on youtube that looks like an invisible triangular beam that cuts thru the clouds perfectly during the day, like that of hollywood movie premier lights shown @ night. It was videotaped some time this month in FL. I think it might be a sign of this 1st contact on the 14th due to a hint that Blossomgoodchild had stated about a "snowcone." All these different phenomena are somewhat resembling what has been foretold in the Bible's Revelation about miraculous events in nature all over the world. I do know that the Bible was just a book to give basics about what we really are. Can't find vid but I've seen it thru some thread on this forum b4. Maybe someone can post link after reading this. Thanx. :tongue2:
