Almost Aussie Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 (edited) I've never seen so many rainbow sightings per day as here in Perth. On certain days even more than 10 times. It's amazing and I've twice seen more than one rainbow at the same time and even double rainbows (one above the other). I've experienced this last winter in Perth (our first here) and the same happened this year. It's just awesome.Is it just me or is this above the norm?

rozellem Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 When people refer to LSD on this forum it is not the stuff they used in the 60's! Get off the happy pills! Seriously, have seen a few rainbows in Sydney but it sound like I will have to look up more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somarie Posted July 23, 2009 Report Share Posted July 23, 2009 Only this morning I said to the kids these are the most rainbows I've ever seen in my life. They're beautiful and most of the times it's a "full rainbow". Nice picture, Jordy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enrica Posted July 24, 2009 Report Share Posted July 24, 2009 (edited) The rains in winter seem to have varied over the past 10 years. The past 2 years have seen very strong winds, stronger that in the past.The rains can last right thru to October. Look on the postive side, if we have enough rain perhaps they will lift water restrictions at some stage!!!The more rain we have the better for our dams and the farmers etc etc.Today is a perfect winter day, should remind you of a high veld winter. Clear blue skys and crips mornings and evennings. Edited July 24, 2009 by Enrica Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
