Rainbows are rare. Double rainbows are rarer, but you know what’s rarer than that? Two rainbows and lightning occurring at the same time.

If you remember science lessons from school, you might recall that the rainbow is a phenomenon that occurs due to refraction, reflection and dispersion of light.

They usually can be seen if there is sunlight right after a rain shower, and it appears in the direction opposite to that of the sun.

A meteorologist, Ed Russo posted a picture which showed a double rainbow and lightning occurring at the same time. This is what the post read, ‘Have you ever been lucky enough to capture lightning AND a double rainbow together? Amy Grabowski Sanders was! Pic from Chambersburg, PA.’Ed Russo.’

The image is really breathtaking. One of the comments on the post read, ‘wow! That’s incredible!’ and most people resounded this opinion. In other comments people shared the mesmerizing and awe-inspiring nature images clicked by them.

Sometime ago, we shared another rare occurrence with you - a pink rainbow. This was seen in England and this is what happened: there was absence of white light as the sky was flooded with pink light, when it passed through the water drops in the air. Instead of forming a full spectrum, the rainbow that formed was made of red, orange and pink hues.
