A halo, with sun dogs and tangent arcs, was spotted over the Headland in Hartlepool by Ash Foster
Thin, high cloud gave a spectacular show of halos, arcs and upside-down rainbows across the North East and Cumbria, not often seen together in the UK.
The phenomena are caused by sunlight reflecting and refracting through ice crystals high in the atmosphere.
BBC Look North weather presenter Jennifer Bartram said it was "very unusual".
"The particular angle at which the sunlight hits these high-up ice crystals form these patterns," she said.
Eyewitness video showed slow-moving traffic on flooded highways.
The Brooklyn Park Police Department said they were notified around 3 p.m. of a water main break at the intersection of 79th Avenue and Shingle Creek Drive. Callers reported that the road was flooding and the asphalt was breaking up. Soon after, a sinkhole had formed and swallowed a vehicle.
The incident marks the fourth shark attack, and the second fatal one, in the French territory this year, just months after Australian tourist Chris Davis died after being bitten by a shark while swimming at a popular Noumea beach.
Authorities are puzzled by the growing number of attacks but have responded by introducing strict measures, including a ban on swimming at the beach in Noumea, and an extensive shark culling campaign.

The unnamed man was in the sea off the beach in Agia Agathi, Rhodes, as his girlfriend filmed him from the beach, according to local media.
The port authority of Rhodes confirmed to the PA news agency the man was 26 and a British national but would give no further information.
A spokesperson said: "This is an active case so we cannot give more details at the moment."
The victims were heading towards a Hindu holy man, Parbharam, for offering annual rituals. They were residents of Mithi city and Satar village, near Mithi, according to reports reaching from Mithi.
Officials reached the spot and informed the media that at least nine others were injured in the incident, adding that all possible medical aid was being provided to them. The bodies, were handed over the families after completing the legal formalities.
