BLOOD rain is expected to fall from the sky just in time for Halloween in the UK.
No, it’s not a trick. It's a serious weather prediction.
Forecasters say hot air is blowing red dust from the Sahara desert towards Europe. Much like the dust storm that engulfed Sydney last year.
But in Europe it’s predicted to rain, so the dust will settle into the raindrops and fall towards land as red rain. Blood rain.
London’s Met office said the red rain could stain cars. It could even be blood snow, with snow predicted in England’s southeast.
“The warm air has been drawn from a long way south down in north Africa and is spreading north,” Met Office forecaster Emma Sharples said.
"But there is going to be a sharp contrast in weather as a cold snap sweeps across the country from Friday which is likely to bring snow to Scotland and the north of England.”
Even if the red rain doesn’t happen - let’s face it, weather forecasters don’t often get it right - there will still be a fantastic sight in the sky. The Earth is passing through the debris of Hayley’s comet sending as cascade of shooting stars across the night sky.
The spectacular show will even be visible from Australia. Just look towards Orion or “the saucepan”.
