No, I don't have magical and/or supernatural powers. And it's not a giant alien spaceship getting ready to attack either. It was a circular shaped rainbow around the sun that was visible on Martha's Vineyard for the past two days. Apparently it's called a "sun halo," and it's something that happens on occasion when sunlight reflects at a certain angle through ice crystals that are present in very high thin clouds.
So there's my 9th grade Earth Science update for the day. I remember seeing this once before several years ago, oddly enough also while I was on the Vineyard. It feels kind of lame that I've written about weather related things 2 of the last 3 days; but they also both seemed worthwhile. I'll get back to sports tomorrow. Also I can't believe Independence Day came out 17 years ago.
