A sun halo (or 22° halo) is a bright, white, or occasionally colored ring appearing around the Sun, caused by sunlight refracting through, or reflecting off, millions of tiny hexagonal ice crystals suspended in high-altitude cirrus or cirrostratus clouds. They often indicate incoming moisture and weather changes.A sun halo (or 22° halo) is a bright, white, or occasionally colored ring appearing around the Sun, caused by sunlight refracting through, or reflecting off, millions of tiny hexagonal ice crystals suspended in high-altitude cirrus or cirrostratus clouds.
