On the way in I noticed a strange reflection of the sun off all the blowing snow. It was like a rainbow but not quite. As I looked closer I noticed that the sun was being bracketed by two of this reflections. I've never seen this before. Does anyone know what it's called? I'll call it a double snowbow for now. The picture below is not a lens affect. This is actually what I was seeing.

It's called a sun dog, and it was awesome. Nice photo.
Awesome job, Bob! I am just in awe of all of you tough cookies. Stay warm and safe!
Steve, thanks for letting me know the official name. I've never seen one, so it was pretty cool to get a decent picture of it. I should have gotten a shot of it with now power lines and my bike in the picture too ;-)
Actually, it was pretty easy riding almost strait south with that tailwind. I'm glad I don't have to bike home into that headwind. I was actually starting to overheat riding with the wind. Some of the fresh snow on the sides of 120th street made for some white knuckle moments while riding in moderate traffic.
Thanks Ryan.
