Minsk winter showed a sunny halo
A rare winter atmospheric phenomenon – a solar halo – has been observed in the city of Minsk. According to observers, the halo formed due to a combination of cold weather, bright sunlight, and high humidity. The distinctive feature of this phenomenon is that, instead of ordinary water droplets that create a rainbow, halos are formed by ice crystals that absorb and refract light.
Context
Solar halos occur when light passes through ice crystals in precipitation, creating a circular light effect around the sun.
Summary:
A winter halo was observed in Minsk, created by ice crystals under bright sunlight in cold weather.
