The local term for this phenomenon is A Door to Heaven. Check out the album this photo came from, taken at Alta Badia, a group of ski resorts in the Italian Dolomite Mountains.

The temperature on this day was about 60 degrees and it sprinkled rain a couple times so I'd call these good old fashioned rainbows, not snowbows.
