Sunset clouds @Beijing

🔷🔹The sunset clouds in Beijing are the best in June. Every hot summer, the splendid sunset clouds frequently dominate social media feeds. Yesterday evening, the sunset clouds filled the sky over Beijing, resplendent and spectacular. Did you see it? 🔷🔹How are sunset clouds formed? 'Cooking smoke rises, sunset clouds are brilliantly dyed.' As the name suggests, sunset clouds are the colorful clouds that appear around sunset on the horizon. It is an atmospheric optical phenomenon formed by the scattering of sunlight by the air. Our environment is filled with a large number of atmospheric molecules and particles. When sunlight enters the atmosphere, it is obstructed by them. At the same time, these atmospheric molecules and particles act as scattering points, 'dividing' the colors of the sunlight and transforming into scattering light sources. Countless tiny scattering light sources come together to form the colorful clouds. ✅Must Experience: 'Red sky at night, shepherd's delight; red sky in the morning, shepherd's warning.' The red clouds that appear at sunrise or sunset are known as 'burning clouds' and belong to the category of low clouds. They are one of the phenomena of atmospheric change, often occurring in summer, especially around sunset after a thunderstorm. There is a folk saying that if the sky burns red in the morning, the weather may turn bad; if it appears in the evening, the next day is sure to be good weather. 🌟Highlight Features: In China, during the spring and summer seasons, the prevailing winds are generally from the southeast (monsoon climate formed by the difference in thermal properties between sea and land). When the sun rises in the east and splendid morning clouds appear, it indicates that a large amount of water vapor is about to be blown towards the local area with the southeast wind. And as the temperature rises after sunrise and air convection accelerates, it is easy to form rainy weather; when sunset clouds appear as the sun sets, it suggests that the weather to the west has already cleared or the clouds have broken, allowing the sunlight to come through and form sunset clouds. This indicates that the rain cloud system formed by the southeast wind is almost exhausted, so even if there is still precipitation locally, it will soon clear up and the weather will turn fine.
