The arc of a clear rainbow with a faint second rainbow above it glows over the Kenai River as a group of kayakers pull into the mouth of Soldotna Creek on Wednesday, Aug. 16, 2017 in Soldotna, Alaska. Spotty rain showers in the central Kenai Peninsula area made for a wet day Wednesday, but the clouds parted enough in the evening to allow a little sunshine through to light up the Wednesday Market in Soldotna Creek Park. More clouds descended Thursday morning, though, with occasional spurts of rain predicted for Friday through Sunday with highs in the upper 50s and lows in the high 40s.
