London has been engulfed by a blanket of yellow sky this afternoon as hurricane Ophelia leaves its mark on the capital.

The strange coloured sky has arisen because of the hurricane drifting sand from the Sahara and debris from forest fires in Spain and Portugal.

The South Coast was first to be hit earlier in the day and now the clouds are making their way north.

Social media has been awash with photos of the funny sky as well as some strange explanations.

Some have suggested it might be an Instagram stunt while others have opted for more Independence Day theories.

Either way, the pictures do cast a curious tale.

Since you are here

Since you are here, we wanted to ask for your help.

Journalism in Britain is under threat. The government is becoming increasingly authoritarian and our media is run by a handful of billionaires, most of whom reside overseas and all of them have strong political allegiances and financial motivations.

Our mission is to hold the powerful to account. It is vital that free media is allowed to exist to expose hypocrisy, corruption, wrongdoing and abuse of power. But we can't do it without you.

If you can afford to contribute a small donation to the site it will help us to continue our work in the best interests of the public. We only ask you to donate what you can afford, with an option to cancel your subscription at any point.
