Did you see the ring around the sun?

If you were outside today, you may have noticed a giant ring around the sun. That ring is actually the reflection of ice crystals from high cirrus clouds, according to EarthSky.org. 

The ring was seen all over the area by News10 viewers, including Roseville and Stockton. Did you get a chance to see it?
