    Some of you may have noticed some of the sunsets lately have a suffused orange glow the reason is this. Sky watchers across the USA and Europe are reporting unusually colorful sunsets and sunrises. The cause appears to be the August 7th eruption of the Kasatochi volcano in Alaska. The volcano hurled a massive cloud of ash and sulfur dioxide into the stratosphere; high winds have since carried the aerosols over parts of the USA and Europe, producing widespread "volcanic sunsets." I took a couple of shots last night stood on the wheely bin to show the phenomena.
