The phenomenon of a double rainbow is described by meteorologists as being caused by the double reflection of sunlight in raindrops.The secondary rainbow is visible outside the primary arc and will have its colour order reversed.
Here are some double rainbow sightings and reactions from around British Columbia:
Burnaby
Kamloops
Sechelt
Delta
Quadra Island
Victoria
Dawson Creek
Vancouver
And perhaps the most viral double rainbow video of them all from America in 2010: the Yosemitebear Mountain Double Rainbow.
