PHOENIX - It’s an eerie sight to see in Arizona: A red sun and moon were captured on Tuesday morning by residents across Arizona, lighting up social media.According to local meteorologists, the red hues are due to wildfire smoke blowing into the state, which has caused hazy skies and a red tint to the moon and sun.Jim Burwell, a local Arizona photographer, shared a video of the incredible sight from his own backyard in Marana, Arizona.“I actually couldn’t believe my eyes,” Burwell told FOX TV Stations. “Originally I thought it was the moon but then realized it was the sun.
I’ve been in Arizona all my life and witnessed thousands of beautiful sunrises over the years, but I’ve never seen it do this before.
