Even the weather agrees with Ireland after one of the largest turnouts in a referendum on same-sex marriage resulted in a resounding 'Yes'. Rainbows have appeared in the skies, not just on the flags in the streets.

People have uploaded their photographs to social media to mark on the remarkable weather coincidence.

Some people even suggested it was God himself who approved of the vote's outcome.

Then there was ahem, 'God' himself.
