advice needed! the sky appears to have gone a really funny colour and I’m worried, can anyone explain what’s going on? bit scared to go outside

(this is a joke about how miserable the weather has been recently, before anyone starts looking at that photo trying to work out what I am talking about.)

@astronomerritt Have you tried closing the curtains/blinds and waiting until it goes away?

Can't be good, whatever it is. It just doesn't look natural.

@ibboard Went outside to put the bins out and there was an extremely bright light in the sky so I went back in before I could be abducted by aliens.

@astronomerritt I'm guessing you're located in the UK, right?

No need for an ?

[astronomerritt@hachyderm.io]

@SnowyCA Ireland. It’s been one of the wettest and gloomiest winters on record!

[snowyca@social.vivaldi.net]

@astronomerritt ugh, so sorry it's been awful weather, and that I guessed the wrong country.
Endless rainfall all winter is too depressing (Vancouver, BC is the same).

@astronomerritt I have seen that colour before, apparently it is compulsory on all photos taken in Canada. Are you drifting towards Canada?

[ccochard@social.sciences.re]

@astronomerritt same here...
I have put the laundry outside and left the house so it won't last

[astronomerritt@hachyderm.io]

my parents just pulled up in the car park and my mum leaned out of the window and yelled “the sky’s gone a funny colour!!” lmao

[astronomerritt@hachyderm.io]

@CCochard you’re ruining it for the rest of us!!
