SUNRISE / SUNSET
Vibrant High-Cloud Sunset
High and mid cloud to set alight, clean low air, a clear horizon to the sun.
How it works
High and mid clouds well above the horizon catch the last direct sunlight and light up in oranges and reds, while clean low air and a clear horizon let that light reach them. The classic sky-on-fire setup.
What to check in the field
This is a Watch look: the ingredients are forecastable, but whether those high clouds actually catch fire, and that the horizon to the sun is truly clear. Shotcast flags it so you know to go and look.
