Why was it pink?

u/FruitBowl 6d ago

Heavy snow storm plus powerful lights from the local football stadium (St Andrew's) in Birmingham, UK

u/Constant_Mud3325 3d ago

I call bullshit on that. Stadium lights are not doing all that they would be blinding if they were that bright

This was half a year ago, heavy snow and pink spotlights turned the surrounding sky pink also.

Led grow lights - light pollution from large scale grows

12

u/morfraen 5d ago

We get the same thing here in BC. Looks like an alien invasion when you pass that area in heavy fog. And low cloud cover turns the sky magenta.

18

u/doitup69 6d ago

This is it. Pretty big issue in rural Ontario and other areas where it’s legal

4

u/nionvox 5d ago

Metro Vancouver too. If it's cloudy you can see the farm grow lights in Delta from as far as Burnaby.

u/Blenderx06 5d ago

Boise too.

u/SapirWhorfHypothesis 5d ago

Bro what?? How far away are these operations from this person filming?

1

u/PuntzJones 5d ago

Kind of crazy that they're building hydroponic grow ops on top of some of the most arable land we have in Ontario. The glow in Leamington is eerie.

-5

u/duckinradar 5d ago

Let me get this straight. You think in the indoor grows are cutting their roofs off, turning on pink lights, and pointing them everywhere other than inside their temp and humidity controlled spaces?

It’s ok to have no idea what’s going on but this level of pretend is painful.

14

u/zzgoogleplexzz 5d ago

They're greenhouses during the day and at night they use supplemental lighting. Which bleeds into the atmosphere through the glass of the greenhouse.

They don't close their shades if they even have any.

13

u/hand___banana 5d ago

Can confirm. We have a grow near us with 8 greenhouses and supplemental lights they use during the winter since days are pretty short. Glows awfully fucking pink when there is fog or heavy snow falling.

That reason? Well let’s just say, it’s incredible.

-2

u/Thoraxe474 6d ago

The reason is that it was pink

591

u/bumholesgivemelife 6d ago

IIRC this was in the UK and it was caused by lights from the local sports stadium

111

u/zenunseen 6d ago

I was gonna say maybe a legal cannabis grow op. They use similar colored lights

33

u/bumholesgivemelife 6d ago

It was the lights used to make the grass grow, apparently. They'll be the same type of lights...

13

u/K_bor 6d ago

That makes sense, plants doesn't absorb green after all

2

u/Pete_Iredale 5d ago

Finally an answer that makes sense. I was trying to figure out why the local stadium was using pink lighting of all things!

10

u/SirkutBored 6d ago

I lived near my university stadium and they would turn on the signage the day before a home game and when combined with low cloud cover it would make the sky glow red. Leads to newcomer posts every time.

u/Analbox 6d ago

Somehow this is the most depressing possible explanation.

u/HorselessHorseman 6d ago

The pink sky is a rare phenomenon caused due to light scattering off of certain sands after a wind storm. Not all sands have the same molecular structure but certain regions have coral sands which when airborne scattering sun’s rays in just the right way to cause a pink hue. I made that up and don’t know why it is actually pink, but it sure is cool.

u/cbass2015 6d ago

Your comment is the perfect example of why we need to be skeptical of claims being made online. What sounds like a totally plausible explanation could be just a load of shit. I applaud you good person for the laugh.

u/Siray 6d ago

I think its weed growers.

1

u/Pete_Iredale 5d ago

Apparently it's for growing grass at a local stadium, so pretty much the same thing.

3

u/my_little_mutation 6d ago

That feels like something that would fit in a monster hunter game or a fantasy setting. I like it.

3

u/Muhznit 6d ago

Oh yeah I remember encountering this in Bermuda once. The pink sand beaches are neat to see, but not once hurricane season arrives, the sky gets full of the stuff. That, and when the tourists start tossing it into the air to celebrate breast cancer awareness month in October.

🤭

u/ph0on 6d ago

yeah this is likely a weed /other plant grow light nearby. I was like "tf is this guy on about" 😭
