The sky was looking weird last night and we decided at the last minute to check out the sunset. Wow and I glad we did.
Hikshari’ Trailhead, Eureka, California 8-14-23.
The sun was already dropping behind the marine layer when we arrived, but looking back east, there was a stunning rainbow, wreathed in fiery red clouds (possibly smoke from the fires in Maui?)
At times, we could see the full arc of the rainbow 😍
Those clouds almost look like a dragon with a rainbow for a spine 😲
The sky to the west was rather stunning as well
There was also a hint of a double bow at times.
I’m not sure what caused these patches of light in clouds… very striking!
The western sky also continued to evolve 🤩
A few more of the rainbow, before it dissipated. Again, I have no explanation for the light…
Then the western sky took over the show
And then it started raining 🤣
Wow, what a night, I’ve never seen anything like this before 🤩
