Day Before 9/11 Anniversary, Astonishing Sight Spotted In Sky Above World Trade Center
A beautiful sight appeared in the New York City skyline the day before 9-11.
The incredible view of a rainbow seeming to touch down right on the location One World Trade Center was captured by New Yorker Ben Sturner, who posted his photographs to Twitter. They quickly went viral. Many reached out to Sturner via social media to thank him for the moving images.
“Chills: Beautiful double rainbow this morning over the Freedom Tower,” wrote one person.
@leverageagency Thank you for posting these. So beautiful & just what I needed to see.

According to the biblical account, God placed a rainbow in the sky as a symbol of peace, following a worldwide flood in the days of Noah. It was to represent God’s covenant with man, for all generations, that such a devastating flood would never happen again.
Sturner posted more pictures on Friday showing how dark clouds, hanging over the location of the World Trade Center early in the morning, dissipated by the actual time of the events on that fateful, desolating day 14 years ago.

A similar experience happened to those on board the U.S.S. Missouri 70 years ago last week as World War II came to an end. Just as General Douglas MacArthur closed the surrender ceremony, saying, “Let us pray that peace be restored to the world and that God will preserve it always,” the low-hanging, dark clouds over Tokyo Harbor parted and sunlight burst through the morning sky at approximately 9:25 a.m. local time. World War II, which began for the U.S. on a Sunday morning at Pearl Harbor, ended on a Sunday morning in Tokyo Harbor.
