Rare: Commuter Amanda Curtis snapped the quadruple rainbow - made of two pairs next to each other - at the Glen Cove LIRR station outside of New York City . Two vivid, primary rainbows can be seen to the left of the image, while dimmer reflections, which have the order of the colors reversed, appear further to the right. Curits posted the image on Twitter hoping that it would bring her luck - and the picture was promptly shared hundreds of times. Reliving the moment in an interview with the Weather Channel, Curtis said: 'I was waiting for my commuter train into NYC and I was outside on the Glen Cove station platform and saw two double rainbows - and was just absolutely blown away by it. Good spot: Commuter Amanda Curtis, who founded fashion company Nineteenth Amendment, took the picture on her way to work Tuesday . 'I decided to take the opportunity to snap to picture to use for later inspiration.' She said that the image was taken in a split second while her train was coming in to the station. Curits said: 'I was outside and my train was coming - so I think I'm good under pressure and just decided to snap it and then run after the train.' The quadruple rainbow followed a storm night in the tri-state area, which saw New York City buffeted with rain and occasional strokes of lightning in the early hours.
