Scientific paper

As the area over which such effects are visible is of some interest, it may be well to mention that a sun-pillar was visible in Dublin at 7 p.m. on Monday, April 28. It was preceded at 6 p.m. by an unusually fine parhelion display, a portion of which was hidden from my view by houses. Two concentric circles and an inverted arc touching the inner one were visible, with a mock sun at the left hand end of the horizontal diameter of the inner circle, and probably another, hidden from me, on the right. The wind all the previous day had been cold from the north-east, in a fairly clear air, and still blew from about north. The sky was full of streamers and wisps of cirrus cloud. Doubtless a far more complete account can be given by other observers.
