And Then...

...the sun turned red.

And the sky turned a sort of dirty yellow, thickened and hid the sun.

I think we're still at the very edge of the action. There's a wind but not a high wind. According to the media the colour of the sky is a mix of desert sand and debris from forest fires in Spain and Portugal.

And it's now clear bright blue here with just a light breeze.

Strange weather!

That red sun was quite spectacular, wasn't it? A few centuries ago one would have taken it for God's displeasure over something or other, and killed a witch to be on the safe side.

That sounds very 1883.

Oh, yes! I saw a very apocalyptic photo on the internet!

One expected to see four horsemen burst out of a sky that looked like that!
