Another Maui Moonbow

Moonbows are also known as lunar rainbows, and is a rare optical phenomenon similar to a regular rainbow, but it occurs at night. It happens when moonlight is refracted, reflected, and dispersed by water droplets in the air, usually near waterfalls, mist, or after rain. There are only a few places in the world that this occurs. Hawaii, Victoria falls Africa, and Cumberland Falls Kentucky. I just wish I had my Nikon camera last night. I will definitely be adding moonbows as a magic ingredient in my next chapter of Meet Me by the Willow, a book I am currently working on. It’s about three friends, Ava, Tara, and Logan, who uncover a mysterious box buried close the old willow tree on Ava’s land. This leads them to find a connection of Norse folklore to a realm of magic. The trio work well together as they each have a dark past and have built a strong friendship along the way. As tensions rise, their bond is tested, and Ava begins to question the reality of the myths she once dismissed. So far my story intertwines mystery, character growth, and hints of magic, setting the stage for the journey ahead.

  1. I don’t know if I’ve seen a moonbow. But a local weatherman told us that a halo around the moon indicated rain was on the way and I’ve seen that many times since then. I’m in the midwest US.
