Bowcast
Rainbows right now
See where rain, sunlight, and rainbow geometry align this hour. Observation-backed ingredients are separated from forecast-supported conditions, followed by estimated chances across 66 worldwide cities. Aligned ingredients do not confirm that a rainbow is visible.
Nothing is confirmed right now
No place currently has both recent antisolar radar precipitation and recent satellite sunlight. That is the ordinary state of the world, not a failure of the feeds. The board below is the model's view until something clears.
These are recent observations of the ingredients, not of a rainbow. Each accepted radar and satellite reading shows its age.
Ranked by this hour
Everywhere else, ranked by the model alone. Chance is only half the physics, so the geometry column reports the sun as well: rows are dimmed where the sun rules a bow out this hour whatever the rain does.
The tick on each sun bar is the 42 degree ceiling · /100 values are conditions scores
