Usually we see rainbows in the morning hours, but now and then conditions are perfect for an afternoon rainbow. Dan Lewis headed for Bower Park, which is on the Gualala Ridge. He photographed this rainbow looking east, over the pond.

Thanks to Dan for allowing me to share his photo with you here.

It's sunny this afternoon, but dark clouds are starting to make their way into the picture. Rain is predicted for tonight, tomorrow, the day after...and...yes, it's going to rain for a while! My season to date rain total is 54.36 inches. I consider 50 inches a nice wet winter, so we're doing great rainfall-wise.

It doesn't happen very often. Usually we see rainbows in the morning out over the ocean, but when conditions are perfect, we get a rainbow in the late afternoon. Jan Jewell photographed part of Sunday's double rainbow.
