After a very long absence, due to various reasons, here is a fresh new video:

Some nice tips on ways to possibly predict the weather
Sibiu is melting in the past few days from the high temperatures. The airport weather station reports 35-36 degrees Celsius but in the town it is hotter, approaching 40 degrees. The concrete and asphalt is taking the Sun heat; you can feel it raising from the ground and wrapping around your body as deadly and invisible clothes. You have to drink a lot of liquids (water being the best) to have a chance to survive. For the pigeons in the Big Square it is easier - the water fountain it’s just a big pool were they can cool and wash…
For the humans it’s harder… there is no open air swimming pool in Sibiu… and they call it European Capital of Culture in 2007… too much culture but too less entertainment
After several hot days the weather changed in Sibiu. The clouds, some showers, strong winds and low temperature were the characteristics of the day. In the afternoon there was a rain toward south east and the expected phenomenon is the rainbow. I was located between the rain and sun and saw a very strong one, doubled. A double rainbow is not a common sighting and occurs when raindrops high in the atmosphere refract and reflect light back to the viewer. For more explanations please see here. Below are the best snapshots.
PS. I’m not expert in working with pictures in the blog so don’t expect too much.
