Default Rainbow

This evening the WeirsCAM caught this nice rainbow over the lake. It appears that the pot of gold is on Governors Island, where it is least needed.


It reminded me of this lightning bolt captured by the Anchor Marine CAM a few years ago:

I just noticed that Bear Island South had already posted the WeirsCAM picture in General Discussion and DRH followed up with an even better view. Click here for that thread.

The rainbow is actually sucking the pot o' gold out of Governor's Island and sending over to AIG where it's really needed.

Arrow Pot 'o' Gold ???

We were eating at 51 Mill St just after the torrential downpour early Sat evening. I'd have said the end of the rainbow was in Back bay, perhaps over the condos there. The other end may have stretched to Governors Island, I dunno. Look as I did, I saw neither a pot 'o' gold nor a leprechaun. Not sure which way the wealth was being transferred but none of it showed up in my pocket.

The rainbow appeared in the WeatherCam also. To see a time lapse of the storms passing and the rainbow appearing, go to my YouTube channel at www.youtube.com/blackcatnh.

The end of the rainbow in this shot appears to be over Dollar Island.
