Temecula Valley Rainbow Pictures - October, 2005

Posted October 30, 2005, 4:01 PM.



At the end of the recent October storm, one or more rainbows were visible in the Temecula Valley.

The ingredients of a successful rainbow are raindrops and sun. The sun is always oriented to the back of a rainbow, behind the observer. Because sun is required, rainbows most often occur when a storm is breaking.

The following photos were taken from Murrieta, and present different perspectives on the most recent rainbow day:
