>This morning we had a snowbow. None of us have ever seen one before so this was extra special. The weather was super cold this morning. At 6am it was 5F and snowing, then by 8am it was 1F and the snow squall gave way to a beautiful sun rise. The snowbow was in the east and more like a line going straight up in the sky. It was beautiful and amazing. It made the crisp winter morning worth it! We didn’t have a camera with us, so i found a picture on the internet that captures what it looked liked almost exactly. (Why does not it surprise me that the picture i found was taken in michigan!)

I looked up snowbows and did not find too much information. What i found out is that the snow has to be a particular crystalline shape to allow for the refraction and it has to be very sunny. Its suppose to be pretty rare. Cool.
