“The sky is yellow! Tell Sally to get her camera and go outside quickly.” said Mum over the phone to Chris.

My mother was right (she is rarely, if ever wrong). It would have felt like the end of the world out on our terrace if it had not been for the huge double rainbow hanging over the sea. Minutes later, from the other side of our house, the sky appeared to be in flames.

These strange atmospherics have come after another big storm a little earlier. Chris was right too. The photographs do not do justice to the actual  colours, or the magnitude, of the weird conditions.
