What are ice halos?
When sunlight reflects and refracts off of tiny ice crystals in the atmosphere, the result can be ice crystal halos, which are related to rainbows. Ice crystal halos are most likely to occur in very cold, dry areas, such as Antartica. These conditions cause snow flakes to form very slowly, which tend to produce very clean hexagonal prisms. These prisms are very well suited to producing ice halos, and hence the ice halos are more normally produced in those areas.
How long do halos around the sun or moon last?
