Why does sunrise look so different each day, even if the weather and season is similar?

A couple days ago, the London sunrise was basically a fade-in from black to light grey. Today, it was stripes of vibrant pink and orange. In both cases, it was cold but not freezing and lightly cloudy. What other factors are causing the sky to look so different every day?

Nothing is even remotely similar. The earth is rotating and orbiting the sun at the same time so the position of the earth and sun are never the same plus there are other things that affect the light as it travels thru space, but the biggest impact is the Earth’s atmosphere and weather which the slight humidity or dust in the air can affect the light and how our brain perceives it.
