Red sky at night, shepherd's delight
Red sky at morning, shepherd's warning.
This means that if there's a pink/red sunset, the next day will be fine. But if there's a pink sunrise, there will be rain. It tends to be true. If you're an outdoorsy shepherd or farmer, this matters. Apparently this saying is even in the bible. We have quite a lot of weather prediction proverbs in the West.
I don't know if this is the same in nearly 365-regular-climate SE Asia! Red sky at night holds true here, but in the sunny tropics there are a lot of red sunsets! Here's tonight's :)
