All day the sky has been a very weird colour here in this part of not so sunny Derbyshire. Like something out of a disaster movie.
It looks like it could belt down with rain at any minute but everywhere is bone dry.

Yes - the sun is a bloody disk over Manchester and the sky is strangely overcast.
What does it portend?

Well stone the crows just been on Facebook (busy work day clearly) and the first thing that popped us was a local weather centre i follow. Apparently it's a Saharan dust storm courtesy of ophellia.

Sand from the Sahara dragged up by the storm. Really weird yellow colour.
This morning was really dark, it looked like there was going to be a torrential downpour but then nothing happened.

Very yellow light down here in the SE, it's like looking at the world with the white balance set incorrect? Or maybe it's just my window's filthy.

Edit: beaten to it by 4 people in under a minute.

There's a yellow sky with a blood red sun peeking through mist here in North Yorks (Skipton). Very eerie.

Went for a walk at lunch, it looked like the end of the world.

Sadly it didn't and I had to go back to 'work'

Yep - yellow sky here too (Harrogate). Very weird coming back into the office after lunch as it is lit with LEDs so the contrast of the blue against the yellow outdoors is very strange.

Devon this morning was odd. Very humid and still when I walked to work then it got progressively darker until it looked like the world was about to end. Then it got lighter but the weird orange light other have described. Now sunny and breezy.

County Durham. Apocalyptic. We've had to switch all the lights on and even the streetlights came on... Forecast says sunshine and clear skies by 4pm.

Yep felt practically dark in Newcastle at lunchtime.
Dark enough that all the automatic streetlights came on.

Really rather orange in Burnley (the local young women have turned invisible). With the blue lights in the office it looks like every Hollywood movie in the last five years.

It's almost like we're all under the same sky or something.

Grey and orange just off Tottenham Court Road. The end times are here. Glad I got to see Blade Runner 2049 first so that I know what's coming.

After the pink sky and red sun this morning, Nibiru has just landed softly on Cannock Chase.

A few delays on the M6 (southbound) and a couple of hastily erected diversions on the Monkey Trail where it joins back up with Follow The Dog.

Blue skies here in Wiltshire now, but windy and there's still a bit of an odd light. Could be these office windows or there's still some dust in the cloud banks to the East.

It's actually dusty enough to sting your eyes in London.

Ironically given the other thread, a canoe has just drifted past up the Thames (ye,s up, it's windy).

London skies increasingly dramatic. Sand clouds reached to about Stratford, Olympic Park but spreading rapidly.. Def end of the world feeling

Lovely bright sunshine and clear skies in Skipton too now. Must be in a well-defined gap between the storm layers.
