I looked up, and there it was, sort of. It wasn't a rainbow but a circumhorizontal arc fragment, caused by light doing interesting things in some high altitude cirrus clouds. It looked a lot more intense in real life, but I only had my phone with me. What I really needed was a polarising lens, which of course was why the reflection in the car window was so vivid, as it was polarised. Ah well, you get the idea. :) Whilst dropping some wheels off at Sandy I noticed an amazing reflection in my car window of a rainbow in the middle of the sky. I looked up, and there it was, sort of.
