What is a ‘Snowbow’? Here’s the explanation from Google……
The rare phenomenon takes place when the sunlight is refracted through snowflakes in air.
Technically it is actually still a rainbow because the light must pass through water droplets in the air and then split to form the spectrum.
A snowbow only happens when the sun is low and it is snowing.
Often this will be when it is snowing at either sunrise or sunset.
