What this forecast looks for
Plain-language explanation from the ruleFire Sky predicts those rare, intensely red and orange sunset skies:
- Red Sky Potential: Based on atmospheric conditions and cloud coverage
- Cloud Position: Mid-level clouds at the right angle catch the most color
- Visibility: Clear enough horizon for the light to travel through
- Solar Angle: The low sun angle that creates red wavelength dominance
These dramatic skies are relatively rare but unforgettable when they occur.
