    Anyone get a picture of the sky tonight?
    It had beautiful red clouds with a long red line going through it,kind of like a laser all the ways up from the west to the south east.
    Wish I had a camera.

    I just legged it out before the colours faded, so didn't get much. I literally had time for one shot!

    Nice pic indeed! Our June Gloom marine layer has burned off early today on the Pacific coast, and promises for a clear, cool night.

    You probably saw that my location is Wicklow, so interesting that conditions were similar in Cobh

    Didn't notice anything special here at sunset but did notice that laser like streak of cirrus that seemed to slice over the altocumulus. Seem to be running in a SW to NE direction and centered to the north, probably somewhere over N Mayo or off the west coast of Donegal. :)
