The Science Behind How We See Rainbows | April 8, 2025

Today on CNN 10 we get an update on severe weather that unleashed tornadoes and relentless rain on parts of the US South and Midwest. We'll also find out what less frequent weather balloon launches mean for weather forecasts, before learning why every rainbow is unique to each individual person. And we'll check out a group that's all about ditching screens for real-life quality time. All this and more on today's CNN 10!

Greetings from Mrs Tiegreen's class at Indian Hills Middle School in Prairie Village, Kansas! We love CNN 10! Everyone was blown away by the circle rainbows - thanks for teaching us about something we didn't know about!

Hi Coy! This is Ms. Thompson from Stockton Elementary School in Stockton, IL. My 4th graders and I have been watching your videos weekly since the start of the year. Their favorite part of the video is the 10 second trivia because they get to guess the answer, and it's exciting when their guess is correct:) We appreciate learning about current events from your videos, and would love a shoutout to the Stockton Blackhawks! The word we'd choose for "Your Word Wednesday" is pathological.

Hey Coy!! This is Mrs. Martin, a teacher at Westgate Collegiate and Vocational Institute in Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada. Our #YourWordWednesday submission is "oubaitori". It is a noun, and it is the Japanese idea that people like flowers, bloom in their own time and in their own individual way. We would love a shout-out here in Canada. Go Tigers!!!!
