This evening around 1720pm, there was an amazing view, one which I have myself seen for the first time!
At the back of Champs De Mars, Port Louis (somewhere in Tranquebar), there was a pair of rainbows.

Twin rainbows, yeah!
These 2 rainbows lasted a few minutes, the right one faded first, followed immediately by the 2nd one.
As usual, I was quick enough to take out my mobile and shoot this exceptional view!
btw, the twin brothers (or sisters lol) were accompanied by a quite important “la pli soleil” for a few minutes, and some parts of this range of mountains in this area became cloudy!
Was anyone lucky enough to see these rainbows?

wow. Nice ! I’ve never seen twin rainbows before. I didn’t even know that it could be possible.

Scientific explanation: 2 very isolated showers in the same field of vision of the ray of sunlight, most probably falling in 2 different directions (through 2 different direction of wind) causing a prism effect on the water droplets, causing 2 visible rainbows…
