Is a Red Sky at Night....Really a Sailors Delight?

Ponds

I grew up on a farm in Bristol Tn and one way we always judged the weather was by the sky. I was taught an old saying..."A red sky at night is a sailors delight" and "A red sky at morn is a sailors warn". It seems to have always been accurate until Christmas Eve 2010 when the sky was as red as I've ever seen it. But we awoke on Christmas morning to find the snow beginning to fall and by lunch we definitely had a White Christmas and as I write this post it is still snowing!

So maybe...just maybe if it happens on Christmas Eve night it means that the Sailors delight would be to have a White Christmas!

I hope everyone everywhere had a Great Christmas!

I have heard a similar expression about the skies and sailing - we didn't have a red sky here, nor did we have snow, but we did have a fabulous Christmas!

We have a blizzard here in Worcester county.  I did not see a red night.  That might have been because it was cloudy:)

Brrrr...  We woke up to storming rain and wind...  We don't get snow, so I always look at the snow pics on AR...

Rob, we had a sort of white Christmas, too!  But we missed the extra six to eight inches they were predicting for yesterday.

Christmas was beautiful and it seems to be extra special with a dusting of snow at the least,

Rob, was it not wonderful to see the snow on Christmas Day.  We also had a white Christmas in Pell City, AL.. It is rare that we ever see snow.
