After a brief fierce downpour on Sunday, a double-rainbow appeared over the Upper West Side. Readers sent in pictures of it from several vantage points.

Even the West Side Highway can be beautiful! Photo by Kathy Hammell.

It was a somewhat interesting rainstorm, parts of Staten Island even had hail. The photos of the rainbow are gorgeous.
I believe we have been blessed by the appearance of these beautiful rainbows. A comforting omen for the new year.
I hope you are right.
The Rainbow…;this is the agreement between God and the Men on earth. “I Will not punished the human race with water anymore again”. This is the meaning of the rainbow on the sky, this is on the Holly Bible, Think,… Are you a believer?
God must have been joking! Have you not heard about the Asian tsunami? And more recently the rains and great floods that have battered our own country? And the havoc El Nino is causing?
