Rainbow Clouds or Circumhorizontal Arc

I caught this out of the apartment window. Circumhorizontal Arc? While I am not sure its the real thing it looks good. A circumhorizontal arc is an optical phenomenon – an ice-halo formed by plate-shaped ice crystals in high level cirrus clouds – http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Circumhorizontal_arc

Its a very rare event and some have said that when you see one rain will be here in 24 hours or worse, an earth quake is due. None the less this rainbow cloud or Circumhorizontal Arc looks cool.
