A rare weather phenomenon has emerged in the sky above Jersey.
The 'fire rainbow' is formed when ice crystals that make up cirrus clouds align forming the arc in the clouds.
Jersey Met says whether it's visible or not depends exactly on how the crystals form in the clouds.
Islanders have been sharing their photos online:
