It is hard to judge how far away a rain cloud is especially if it's moving. The rainbow's distance extends from the nearest to the farthest raindrops that contribute any part of the colored light. The closest of these raindrops may be miles away. In the case of water spray from a lawn sprinkler in which a rainbow appears, you can reach right in and "touch it"....or so it seems. Many questions are unique to one's cultural history. Hoped This Helped.

How could rainbow made in sky?
Rainbows are caused by sunlight glinting off tiny water particles in the sky, bouncing the light back towards the observer. In other words, any time you see a rainbow directly in front of you, the Sun is directly behind you, and your shadow points at the center of the circle the rainbow is describing. There are 2 types of rainbows. One that is formed in the sky and one that is formed by mist. But they both have something in common. All rainbows are formed by water or moisture and light put together and makes a rainbow. That's why you see rainbows right after rain.

Why ca you see a rainbow on a cloudy day?
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
