Ice crystals in the atmosphere/clouds and the sun (light) reflecting at just the right angle.

Yes, it from cirrus clouds, specifically!  They are high up in the atmosphere and are made mostly of ice crystals.

I did see the ice jams overflowing onto the houses.  Pretty crazy and now it is in the upper 90's there today!  Brings a new meaning to "Iceberg right [in bed]!"

I saw this 2 years ago when i was in Florida I have a pic of it somewhere I thought it was Aliens
Its better to sit in a boat and think about God, than to sit in a church and think about fishing.
