A magnificent rainbow brightened up the skies bringing much-needed cheer. As people were coming to terms with the prospect of not being able to see their families at Christmas due to new coronavirus restrictions, a ray of assorted colours shone proudly in darkened skies yesterday afternoon. It was an awesome sight, and many people commented on such a beautiful thing in grim times. The phenomenon was captured by a number of people including Rachel Baylis who photographed it over Weymouth Harbour, (main picture and also below), describing it as amazing . Meanwhile, local GP Dr Rupert Tuberville-Smith said: Symbolic rainbow in the sky outside the Weymouth Covid Vaccination Clinic. Hopefully signifying better times ahead as Weymouth GP practice teams start vaccinating our most vulnerable patients.
