This was a rare sight as we watched the cloud dissipate & form this beautiful rainbow in minutes. This was in Copperas Cove, Texas. We were en route home & had to find a clearing to snap a quick picture before it totally disappeared. Started as one big really thick white cotton ball shaped cloud. I noticed as we drove along that in less than 5 mins from when I first noticed the dense cloud, it had dissipated from the bottom up & this pretty rainbow appeared. Can still see the horizontal 'L' shaped cloud that was remaining in the moment I took this picture. Very cool to see. The picture does not show the true awesomeness of being witness to this but it does indeed capture our memory.
