We've been getting those a LOT in Iowa this year, mornings and afternoons.  You know it's cold when it does that.  :happy:  That was really a complete one.

Usually it's morning or later afternoon as the sun starts setting, although I saw one this noon, not the whole ark, but the one off to the side.  Ice crystals in the air.   (ooops arc)

Cool, mine was early when the sun was rising!  :sunshine:
