Supernumerary Rainbows
Sacramento received 0.2" of rain on March 11th - the only rain in more than a month in what is still nominally the rainy season.
There was a rainbow this evening with very pronounced supernumerary bows inside the main arch. Supernumerary bows are caused by light interference, but only when raindrop sizes are very-nearly uniform.
