Comments: On rare mornings with just the right amount of fog, there is a brief window when a fogbow will form. The extremely small water drops in fog scatter the light into much broader, overlapping bands of color that result in a bow that is almost completely white. Several additional supernumerary bows are sometimes visible inside the main fogbow.
