Seen this while Driving one Day and thought wow I must get Photo's. Maybe It's Northern Light's or maybe just Sunlight reflecting off of Cloud's? Just thought It would be neat to share. The first Photo is several minute's before The following Photo's. A Town South of Saint Louis.

Josh, that's a sun dog-- light reflecting off of ice crystals high up in the atmosphere. Although mostly seen in winter when the sun tracks lower, I've seen one in October accompanying the first big cold front dropping down. What's cool is when you get sun dogs on either side of the sun.Child of the tides
