The sun rises in the western sky.

It is common knowledge that the sun rises in the eastern sky and sets in the western horizon. That is a fact that is accepted wherever you look. If you claimed to have witnessed the sunrise coming from the west, most people would view your testimony with skepticism because of this well-established scientific fact.

In spite of this, it is clear that this is exactly what took place on that peculiar day, as shown by the original poster and the three compasses that they investigated. Is it conceivable that the OP became confused and checked the compass directions in the wrong order three times? Is it possible that they were the only people who saw something really strange?
