We've been getting calls left and right today (May 14th) from callers today saying they are seeing a strange rainbow-like ring around the sun. Although many are seeing the same thing, no one seems to have an explanation for it.    Here is a picture of what people have been calling in saying that they are seeing.

The scientific term is called a sun halo and it is an optical phenomenon. Halos are created by ice crystals or white arcs in the sky.
