It was a wild night in the Twin Cities on Monday, Aug. 26. Sunset broke through the clouds immediately on the heels of a fierce thunderstorm to produce a rare rainbow in an orange sky that had people popping out of doors to take a photo.
Michael Kaplan, a bartender/server at Relish, 700 Central Ave., grabbed this shot.
The aftermath of the Aug. 26 storm provided some awe-inspiring moments. They didn’t last long. Blue skies were on the horizon as lightning flashed. (Vince Brown)
