Red sky at night

Not round here !!

Is it magic?

It was lovely on Sunday when I was on a train heading south from Chester.
Partly the type of clouds - broken up, medium height. Also dust in the atmosphere gives red colour.

Oh I do hope it's magic we all need a bit of that. I live in Kent so perhaps it's just in the south east. How lucky are we or perhaps unlucky if its dust

I agree Kiora , we every jack man of us need o little magic in our lives !

Oh, I really didn't want to know that about it being caused by dust...

We have had some amazing sunsets here for months. Not every week but when its a good un its fabulous. We are in deepest Herefordshire and looking towards the Black Mountains in Wales, nowhere near Kent.

ANA lol!

i don't know what causes the spectacular sunsets but that old adage

Red Sky at night
Shephers's pie
For tea tonight

has made for a limited diet over the last couple of weeks!

...probably caused by pollution.....

Usually the cause is water vapour in the atmosphere which is why the West of Scotland has such spectacular sunsets.

We've had some stunning sunsets over the last couple of weeks. For two nights running the sky was just a sheet of scarlet. It's really made up for some of the dreary days we've had.

We've had fabulous sunsets in Leicestershire lately - rather eerie in fact. I don't want to know that its related to poor housekeeping either

It's stardust not house dust.

Mind you, we are all stardust so i guess...

Hmm.

(of course there is dust in the air! mountains are eroding all the time; winds are whipping up dry soil, etc, etc, etc)

So...

love dust; it is you.

We have had some spectacular sunsets in the north east, I think the sun is just reflecting off thick, low cloud. Years ago, up here, it would have been pollution but not now.

Can't get that song out of my head now, Bags!
(It may be a bit before your time, though...)

Love that song! I remember dancing on stage at the end of the show in 1969

Yes! Those were the days...(sigh)

Red sky at night,shepherd's delight (means it is going to be a good day). Seems to have been true the last few weeks

Yes, noticed it at home (Oxfordshire), York and Normandy.
