Sunday’s Bay Area rainbow wows skies, Instagramers

Glorious!

Think of it as mother nature’s timeless art sculpture, the rainbow, which gleefully graced the skies after Sunday’s rain. Trumped only by the combo of chocolate and peanut butter, the always thrilling fusion of sunlight mixed with wet skies revealed a super cool rainbow—a double rainbow, in some cases—up high.

Did you see it? If not, you’re in luck. Heaps of folks took to social media to post images of the meteorological phenomenon in full drag.

Here are some of our favorite shots:

Look closely here to find the rainbow hiding behind those EARS.

If you look closely there's a rainbow landing on Alcatraz behind me #doublerainbow #alcatraz #sf
