Red sky in morning….

It was a beautiful sunrise this morning

sunrise-11.10.10

Red sky in morning, sailors take warning.

Red sky at night, sailors delight.

We’ve all heard this old saying. But is it true?

Here is a quick link to a weather site that says that this might not just be an old wives tale. It does say that if you have a nice red sky in the morning, that rain may be on the way. And we just happen to have rain in the forecast for today.

While I was looking for this, I found a Wiki that lists all kinds of weather old wives tales:

That’s your lesson for today! Smile
