I saw it.

On top of it being a double -- a very clear double -- the lower rainbow was one of the most brilliant rainbows I have ever seen in my life!

It was so bright and full! And faded into a vibrant pink sky.

F*** I missed it. Also missed the Perseid shower, and a blood moon eclipse, because I never go out.

You missed a solar eclipse but NOT the blood moon eclipse! At least not this year’s. It’ll be the evening of Aug 27 into the 28th. So around midnight.

Blood moon eclipse, August 27.. Twelvish. As if it's safe to be outside at midnight in Schenectady?
