'Halo' spotted around the Moon across England
By Sophie MaddenBBC News
A " lunar halo" has been spotted in the Night Skies .
The Ring around the Moon was seen over The Skies on Saturday evening in Staffordshire, the West Midlands , Surrey, Berkshire, Dorset, Yorkshire and The Isle of Wight.
The Phenomenon is caused by the refraction of moonlight from ice crystals in the upper atmosphere.
According to the Met Office , the halo can suggest rainfall might be approaching.
It added: " The halo is caused by ice crystals formed in high clouds.
" These ice crystals then refract The Light from the Moon or Sun.
" As the ice crystals travel lower, precipitation becomes more likely. In Summer months particularly, the Halo can be A Sign of approaching storms. "
Geographer Simon Collins said he was " delighted" to catch a glimpse of The Moment .
" I'm a keen weather observer [and] run a local weather station so am always delighted to see lovely weather phenomena as so many others did Last Night as well, " the 57-year-old, who took a photo in Reigate, Surrey on Saturday Night , said.
Some described witnessing the occurrence as " amazing" with others described it as " very weird" and " like a night time rainbow".
