February Rainbow

A few days ago, thunderstorms were forecast and once the rumbles started I turned off my computer/other electronics. It seemed like the sun came out again very quickly after a short heavy rain….and I glanced out the window. There was a rainbow! It’s a little unusual for us this time of year when we normally have snow rather than rain. The rainbow’s location was more toward the northeast since the sun is further to the southwest in the afternoon this time of year.

I took the picture from my front doorway. The trees with reddish looking branches are maples. They are already blooming. The branches on the far right of the image are the oak that is near our mailbox.
