Very nice, is this considered a crimson sky?

I have no idea. But it caught my eye through my front door and I grabbed my phone quickly to take a picture. Even more stunning in real life.
We’ve got a saying here (not sure whether it’s just here) “Red sky at night, shepherd’s delight. Red sky in the morning, shepherd’s warning.”

Yes, my mom tells me that all the time. She is from England. Grew up in Houghton and Wyton. My great uncle owned a placed called Three Jolly Butchers. It is still there and I would like to visit at some point.

We had the same warning growing up! 
Just slightly different: “Red sky at night, sailor’s delight. Red sky at morning, sailors take warning.” (I wrote a bit more on this in Methods to Read Nature and Predict the Weather)
I imagine the difference is because my family has always lived by the sea, and originally came from southern England 
Absolutely beautiful sunset!

Poor weather I’m assuming. I grew up in a farming area but not from a farming family.

@IrisW is right 
if the sky is red in the morning it means there’s a higher chance of rain that day

That’s good to know about the red sky in the morning!
I’m sure it’s more accurate than our local news weatherman
