During the fires the sun looked sort of red because it was hiding behind all of this smoke.

It's the northern Lights(Aurora Borealis) I can see it faintly here too... it is being seen because of the sun's solar storm yesterday. Don't panic.

It was cloudy today, so I couldn't see anything.

Not the lights itself, but the solar flare could, it hit earth yesterday anyway, so don't worry about that either.

I could see a very light color of red to the north about an hour after sunset(7pm ET) but I live in the city and have a lot of trees, so I didn't have a good view at all.:(

That's cool stuff! Aurora Borealis, how fun. I want to go look at the sky now lol...but I can't bring myself too because it smells too bad outside. I'm going to try to look out the window.

It's not red :(

The sun gave off a solar storm and the interaction with the earth caused the lights...

I saw that yesterday when I took the dog out. There was a red sky with a white streak down the middle and it was very pretty. It looked as though it was just right over my house to the north. The northern lights usually don't come down as low as WV, so I was surprised to see them.

Yeah, you'll probably never see it again in your lifetime. It was visible away from the city all the way down here in Alabama...
