Residents in Norfolk were treated to a remarkable sunset as the sky displayed hues of purple, pink, and orange. Vivid photographs, taken from various locations across the county on Sunday afternoon, were submitted by BBC Weather Watches. The Met Office stated that purple sunrises and sunsets are frequently caused by red skies reflecting off the undersides of dense or dark clouds. It further noted that these phenomena could also be a result of dust or aerosols in the stratosphere scattering blue light; however, no dust or aerosols were recorded in the vicinity.
