When I die and they lay me to rest,
Gonna go to the place that's the best.
When I lay me down to die,
Goin' up to the spirit in the sky...
Sorry, what? Oh.
Another weather-and-rainbows-related phenomenon for you guys- an MSNBC article has highlighted this strange formation that occurred this week over Washington, captured by a resident. From the article:
The colorful phenomenon known as a circumhorizon arc occurs when sunlight strikes cirrus clouds — the kind that typically look like cotton candy and form very high in the sky — at a certain angle.
Pretty neato.

Silly non-bronies, making up new names for Sonic Rainbooms all the time.
ReplyDeleteSo cute.
Ponies walk among us
ReplyDeleteRainbow Dash is At it AGAIN!! :)
ReplyDeleteName of my Loki
ReplyDeleteRemnants of the sonic rainboom can reach even the nonbelievers eyes.
ReplyDelete"circumhorizon arc"
ReplyDeleteThe informal name "Fire Rainbow" sounds much better.
Dash really does like to show off huh?
ReplyDeleteThat's clearly a misconception. The well-educated as us would always definitely note it as a regular phenomenon of a Sonic Rainboom.
ReplyDeleteAnd at the bottom of the article there is another article talking about doomsday...
ReplyDeleteTHE EVIDENCE IS UNDENIABLE! THE PONYACOLYPSE WILL SOON BE UPON US!
And y'all call yourselves Bronies. Rainbooms are round. That there is clearly the "Buccaneer Blitz".
ReplyDeleteAwww, man, Cereal. You're taking me back to my time in the 90s, where you could remix anything with basketball entrance music: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A0Mm5o_lkus

I enjoy the fact that the blog I follow the most keeps me apprised of interesting and aesthetically pleasing atmospheric phenomena.
ReplyDeleteMore pretty rainbows please.
ponies live among us, they are disguised as humans and watching us every day, soon we will ascend into equestria in our new purer forms and all of the non believers will be left to burn on earth.
ReplyDeleteThat's really phenomenal!
ReplyDeleteDang Rainbow Dash! You did it again! :)
ReplyDeleteWish I could 6 star for the Spirit in the Sky reference.
ReplyDeleteI love these weather posts, the world is so beautiful sometimes.
OMG i think i can see my CUTIE MARK :D
ReplyDeleteHere I thought only Pinkie broke the fourth wall.
ReplyDeleteIs it me or has there been more stuff happening like this since the Friendship is Magic debued?
ReplyDeleteRainbow dash is known to show off!
ReplyDeleteaw hell, I'm too far south to have seen it. DASHIE PRACTICE A HUNDRED MILES FURTHER SOUTH NEXT TIME. >:(
ReplyDeletedashie you're such a show off
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteYea, I noticed that a lot of these weird things about rainbows and colors popping up all over the world lately ever since FiM became super popular.
Maybe somehow our FRINDSHIP AND LOVE is ripping a whole in space to the Ponies unverise!!!!
Friendship truely is magic!
It...looks like Rainbow Dash. I can actually see her head shape o_o These ponies, they drive me to insanity! Very pretty indeed, though :)
ReplyDeleteOoh, Norman Greenbaum.
ReplyDeleteThis has RD written ALL over it.
ReplyDeleteWell it IS Tim Allen.
ReplyDeleteAwesome, but I personally am still waiting on the phenomenon known as "portal to Equestria opening".
ReplyDelete@Equus
ReplyDeleteAnd I can picture Trollestia floating next to the portal thats like 50 miles in the air. Smiling at us cause we cant fricken reach it!
I saw this earlier today and new it would be posted here, pretty cool!
ReplyDeleteCuz, you got a friend in Ponies!
ReplyDeleteThe weather over here is just gearing up for Northwest Bronyfest. B)
ReplyDeleteRainbow Dash escaped with help of Pinkie Pie, now they are free ;) Its beautifull.
ReplyDelete@RBD FAN
ReplyDeleteI highly doubt they're more common. Awareness has just skyrocketed. >_>
/seriousness
@RBD FAN no man you don't get the portal on EARTH, you have to get into the Medium first before you get the portal to the Land of Ponies and Magic
ReplyDeleteThis pleases me.
ReplyDelete@Gravestein
ReplyDeleteI don't think anypony here would actually give up their human life to become a random pony(Peg,uni,earth) pony if somehow a portal did open up!
Oh Rainbow Dash. You showoff pegasus you.
ReplyDeleteRainbow Dash can sonic rainboom through parallel universes now.
ReplyDeleteit's only a matter of time :D
It's the Spirit of Rainbow Dash! What could this mean? :O
ReplyDeleteIt's a pretty picture and a nifty effect, but this has nothing to do with ponies. Not every rainbow is a "sonic rainboom". I really just can't see why this deserves a post here.
ReplyDeleteIt means that, the next time we see this signal.....
ReplyDeleteIt heralds the beginning of phase two of operation "overpony"....
Invasion.
Sadly, it will be a couple of years yet before bronies will have infiltrated every level of society to sufficiently facilitate the pony takeover.
Natural Phenomenon for the fracking win.
ReplyDeleteDashie~
ReplyDeleteWow, it looks like RD made a really sharp turn there.
ReplyDeleteOkay, that's wicked awesome.
ReplyDeleteI've actually seen this, and it was freaking amazing. It's pretty rare.
ReplyDeleteRD performed a sonic rainboom maybe? :D it's weird because yesterday I saw a rainbow too. RD is somewhere out there ^-^ or so I like to believe.
ReplyDeleteThis weather phenomenon has RD written all over it. She intended to arrange the clouds like that.
ReplyDeleteConfound these ponies, they make me look for rainbows
ReplyDeletehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circumhorizontal_arc
ReplyDeleteAwesome.
It's the Dash Signal!
ReplyDeleteNeat
ReplyDeleteThe ponyocalypse is neigh!
ReplyDeleteFUN FACT: Elton John did a cover of "Spirit In The Sky". It was one of those "before they were famous" things.
ReplyDeleteAw, I missed Rainbow Dash's latest Sonic Rainboom! D>
ReplyDeleteYou guys it's obvious it's a care bear stare! Lol, jk these actually happen a lot in Ohio in the summer time. When I was little I use to think it was the angels or God opening the heavens to look down on us.
