Captain Colonial Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 Anyone else seeing weird skies today? Had a peach / red coloured sun since first thing, and the skies here in the Midlands are a spooky yellow / orange colour too. Same where you are? I assume this is being caused by the storm. Quote
Kingster Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 Yes same up here. Feels like a partial eclipse! 1 Quote
Thrustyjust Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 Really silver grey murky clouds in the south and we are missing the old girl whizzing through, but still quite blustery. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-41635906 Quote
Andrew Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 Who put the sun out! 1-30PM feels like an hour after sunset Quote
Phil J Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 Down here on the south coast of Cornwall it is a windy (we have had much worse) but otherwise lovely sunny day. Earlier I found our cars were covered in red dust both were reasonably clean yesterday.They said on the news that the dust and smoke is from the Sahara and also the forest fires in Spain and Portugal. I could smell the burning when I first went out but it seems to have blown through now. Quote
Geoffrey Carter (Buttercup) Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 See if you can see the colour of the sun. Keeps going a lovely pink. Quote
Man On The Clapham Omnibus Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 Here in the Chilterns at 14:30hrs it is dusk already and orange skies - weird! The Met Office on their website, in their infinite wisdom, say that 'NOW' is bright sunshine. So much for super computers. eh? ETA perhaps Kim Jong Un has let off his squib! Quote
Andy Banks Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 Same here in North London in the last 40mins... Something to do with sand from the Sahara on the back of Ophelia, looks nice but eerie. Quote
Rhett Turner - Black Country AO Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 Yes it was very strange earlier, very eerie. My wife has just got back and her car, which I washed yesterday, is covered in sand. It lovely and sunny now but the wind is picking up. Quote
pistonbroke Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 personally I would blame the skinheads http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4124122/mediaviewer/rm1758787840 Quote
TAFKARM Posted October 16, 2017 Posted October 16, 2017 Had a post apocalyptic feel at Gatwick this afternoon, but that might just be Gatwick. Quote
