With Hari Raya Puasa just around the corner, many will be out and about getting ready for the festivities.
For those who came out this morning (21 Apr), they may have been lucky enough to witness a double rainbow.
Indeed, Singapore residents have been posting sightings of a double rainbow from all over town, with some even capturing an almost complete arch.

Given that the double rainbow emerged a day before Hari Raya Puasa, some might even say it’s a sign of a blessed Raya ahead.
Multiple users took to Facebook on Friday (21 Apr) morning to share photos they took of the rainbow in various areas.
One of the earlier sightings came Facebook user Mr Lim, who shared his snapshots in the Singapore Hikers group.

Posted at 7.19am, he wished fellow members good morning alongside five photos of the rainbow.
Although only a single rainbow is visible, it still appears fairly vibrant with a clear separation of colours.
While it was photographed next to a cluster of HDB blocks, Mr Lim did not specifically name the location.
Meanwhile, Facebook user Alvin shared his photos at 7.25am in the CloudSpotting & SkySpotting Singapore group.
In the caption, he said that despite missing the partial solar eclipse yesterday (20 Apr), he was able to catch the double rainbow.
His photos showed the phenomenon from various angles, with one stunning image showing it in its full arch glory.

The sightings left netizens in awe, with many praising the rainbow’s beauty.
They even prompted some to share their own sightings, proving that the rainbow could be seen from all over.
One user captured a vibrant flash of the rainbow, saying they were able to see ‘a bit’ of it from their home.
