That moment that you see a rainbow circle around the sun is breath takeing. Its called a " Halo " . Its a sign that its going to get cloudy soon. But in that day you see it. Only some people around the world can see it. Not that meny people. Like somewhere in my state Ohio. You can find that halo any where there.

A Solar Halo.

It is caused by ice crystals in the highest clouds, and it often a forecast of rain to come.
