Red sun phenomenon caused by hurricane Ophelia UK October
This unusual phenomenon has been seen in the South West, West Midlands, North West and North East.
On 16 October 2017, the combination of the powerful ex-hurricane Ophelia, wildfires in Portugal and Spain, and uplifting of desert dust from the Sahara all combined to varying degrees to turn the colour of the sky a deep brown and orange hue, and the Sun red, across England, Wales and parts of Scotland.
The sun turned into a small, bright, red ball shining through a blanket of clouds.
Forecasters at the Met Office are investigating the hurricane and said it could have been caused by a large amount of dust from the Sahara.
Storm Ophelia is expected to hit the UK mainland at around midday, with flights grounded and a “danger to life” warning in place.
Planes have been grounded at Manchester Airport, with 20 flights cancelled and passengers warned to check ahead.
