fog bow

The fog bow

fog bow

A fog bow, as the name implies, is a rainbow that appears in fog rather than during rainfall. They are slightly fainter and more difficult to see than rainbows, but you are more likely to see the entire circle of the optical effect. Because fog is made up of smaller water droplets than raindrops, the full spectrum of colours in a fog bow is difficult to distinguish and appears as a bow of faint red and blue.
