    Talking to the Daily Mail, a spokesman from Moscow's weather forecasting service said: "Several fronts have been passing through Moscow recently, there was an intrusion of the Arctic air too, the sun was shining from the west – this is how the effect was produced.
    It more than likely was a natural phenomenon but hte above explaination reeks of "Venus reflected through swamp gas"

    If you observe clouds regularly, you may see many other astonishing things.
    Damn it, if only some way to observe clouds, but how?
