Yes. If the water moisture in the atmosphere is just right, you can see a rainbow anytime of the day. It is possible to see full circular rainbows or halos around the sun in the daytime, or even multiple ones.

Why cannot you see a rainbow at noon?

Rainbows usually form when sunlight is refracted and reflected off water droplets in the atmosphere, creating the spectrum of colors. At noon, the sun is directly overhead, so the angle at which sunlight hits the water droplets is not conducive for rainbow formation. The sunlight needs to hit the droplets at a specific angle to create a rainbow, which is why they are typically observed early in the morning or late in the afternoon.


What time is it when both a clocks hand are on twelve and the sun is overhead?

It is noon when both the clock's hands are on twelve and the sun is overhead.


Can you see a rainbow at12 noon?

It is less likely to see a rainbow at noon because the sun needs to be low in the sky, around 42 degrees or lower, for the sunlight to produce a rainbow in the opposite direction. However, it is technically possible if specific conditions align, such as during winter when the sun is lower in the sky or in tropical regions.


At which latitude would you expect the sun to be directly overhead at noon on April 21?

I think that the sun is only ever directly overhead the equator at noon on any day of the year.


Would a person who lives at the equator will see the Sun directly overhead at noon every day of the year.?

Yes, a person living at the equator will see the Sun directly overhead at noon on two specific days of the year during the equinoxes (around March 21 and September 23). This phenomenon occurs due to the Earth's axial tilt and the Sun's position relative to the equator.

What does rainbow at noon more rain soon mean?

The occurrence of a rainbow at noon typically indicates that there are rain clouds nearby that may bring more rain in the near future. The angle of the sun at noon can create the conditions necessary for the formation of rainbows when there are rain clouds present.
