Strange light

Finally the winter is how it's supposed to be! Sorry that i keep talking about the weather, but winter and having snow in the winter is tightly combined with finnish peoples sanity.
Days are getting longer too, which is nice.
Few days ago we saw a really strange light outside; we were watching tv when suddenly we noticed this strange color outside (and no there was no drugs involved … the whole family experienced it ) it was sort of a light red. At first i thought that the windows were causing it; it felt like looking through pink shades. Me and mum of course rushed outside, but my little sister, suffering of some extreme form of puberty, couldn't be bothered.
It was truly amazing; it couldn't be the sun going down because in the edges of the thick clouds in the horizon it was bright blue like normal and it was still early. The light also made our skin look red. As the clouds kept moving the colour started to fade away. Strange …never seen anything like it.
My mums theory is that they were some kind of freak northern lights, but who knows… maby there was another nuclear plant accident in Russia ( wouldn't be the first ) anyway, sorry that i can't provide you with a picture.
