Hi Sandy,
It's correct, this double rainbow is rare. I watched it twice, two weeks
ago
and on the 03th. of June 2002. I have taken a lots of pictures of this
double rainbow (pictures: http://www.nachtwolke.de/index2.htm -->
Atmospheric phenomena --> anomal rainbow )
Last week the german observer Eva Seidenfaden saw this double rainbow too.
On the AKM pages we are collecting pictures of this "double rainbow" -->
http://www.meteoros.de/unbe/regen.htm . I think this rainbow is made by
interference. What you think?
Best,
Benjamin
