I think it's the same one(s). Here's another shot of it from the WeatherCam:

A preview of tonight's rainbow. Another full arc was above this one. Lightning danced around underneath it! #NHwx pic.twitter.com/GHeUuxM3lG

It must be the same! I'm not sure, but there seems to be two rainbows in my picture.

From my sisters Phone. Not the clearest picture but the timing was perfect.

That shot is awesome. I have a motor drive photo app on my phone that snaps pictures really fast, I have sat on my back deck and taken series after series of photos in lightning storms and cant ever catch the lightning!! That was an awesome shot......so, I see a little caption, Dennis in NJ? Are you from the Garden State? I'm from NJ, South Jersey to be exact, how bout you? What are your ties to the Lake? Or is it just Love? You can pm me if you dont want any of this to be public.....

We observed the double rainbow last evening from our dock on East Bear Island. The north end of the lower rainbow was at the south end of Six Mile Island, and the south end was in the water next to Camp Island. My science teacher brother explained that the order of colors in the upper rainbow is the reverse of the lower one.
