"Halo" Cloud in Moscow...


One of my Intro to Meteorology students posted an awesome link about some amazing looking clouds in the shape of a "Halo" over the skies of Moscow, Russia... I thought I would post a link to the story so everyone can check it out... I actually put it up on my twitter account yesterday even though the original link has changed... Here is a statement about the event:

An official spokesperson for Moscow's weather department said, "Several fronts have been passing through Moscow recently, there was an intrusion of the Arctic air too, the sun was shining from the west — this is how the effect was produced."


Of course I don't think it was a UFO but hey I'll let you be the judge of that... :-)
