Saturday, October 5, in Birmingham, Alabama USA we had a great halo
(22 degrees?) around the sun from 11:30 am until 3:00 pm. It was white
except for about one-fifth of the circle toward the top which had muted
rainbow colors (mostly pink) for most of the observing time. That area
sometimes was white like the other portions.
I have seen a lot of sundogs in this area of the country but this is
the first halo around the sun that I have seen this far south. It was
great.
