This is weird. I'm on the west coast of Florida near Tampa. With this storm blowing thru and being just after

sunset my neighborhood is a weird orange glow to it. I guess the sun is shining thru all the various cloud density's... Very eerie to see everything orange...

2. Tnx Peggy.. I've lived in Florida most of my life and have been thru a bunch of these "events". It looks like

this is just gonna be a lot of rain. I'm also quite high here at 60 feet above sea level..
Run from the water, hide from the wind..
I love the visuals mother nature provides... The "orange light show" only lasted for about 3-5 min or so..

3. The sunsets have been bright orange and different shades of orange for the last couple of evenings

Here..I’m also on the west side of Florida. It is eerie knowing a storm is just a few miles away but Mother Nature has given us quite a lovely show

4. Haven't checked the map.

But do y’all have the Saharan dust coming in over there also.

We’ve had orange skies in the morning and at twilight here in Texas for a while because of it.

7. No dust intrusion that I can tell.. Just pink skys at sunrise and sunset.. This orange is/was a different animal.nt

5. I hear you, mitch96. I'm on the west coast of Florida, too, but a little further south from you.

The sky was orange during the storm on Monday. Felt eerie then and took a picture at 8:16 pm. Sounds similar to your description.



Not tonight, though. Very oddly dark for over an hour. And spooky silent. As you say - weird.

6. Yup, that's it but a bit more intense. Most of the homes in my neighborhood are white so they reflect

the orange light really well..
Tnx for the pic...
