The rainbow is almost always in the day sky, produced by sunlight.
Very rarely, one can appear in the night sky, produced by moonlight.
-- You can see a rainbow at any time of day when the sun is behind you in clear sky, and the air in front of you is loaded with moisture, such as rain, mist, or heavy fog. -- You can see a dim rainbow at any time of night when the moon is behind you in clear sky, and the air in front of you is loaded with moisture, such as rain, mist, or heavy fog.
We see a ainbow in the sky when this happens
A rainbow is formed when sunlight passes through a water droplet and refracts into the entire colour spectrum. You can see a rainbow when it is cloudy because there are far more water droplets in the sky, and therefore more chances that you will see a rainbow. Rainbows, however , are far more common during a sun shower, as there is more unreflected light in the sky
Because in order to see a rainbow, the sun must be in a clear patch of sky.
The rainbows are leaning out from the sky (not touching the sky) Thus making the rainbow visible. Another explanation is that the colours are brighter and more powerful than the sky's ordinary blue!Thank you for reading!!
In the sky
If it is sunny after the rain has stopped, you are likely to see a rainbow in the sky.

You can't see a rainbow when the day is dry and only after it rains because when the sun starts coming out and its still raining, the sun shines on the water and just like a mirror the sunlight shines and bounces off making a rainbow like it had been painted by God in the sky. That is why you can't see rainbows when the sun is shining and with no rain.
Rainbow is due to dispersion of light as it reflects from rain drops. Red sunset and blue sky are due to Rayleigh's scattering.
raindrops or clouds p.s. after you might see a rainbow
