More likely your dish alignment.

@SL3 

Quite possibly in view of recent storms / high winds. If a “no satellite signal” message is displayed look at the troubleshooting on this link
https://www.sky.com/help/articles/sky-tv-no-satellite-signal-sky-q
It may then give you the opportunity to arrange an engineer to check the alignment of your dish (it’s not something that will necessarily be visible to the naked eye).

Temporary  loss or breakup of the picture is typically caused by very heavy rain, sleet, ice or snow.  If the weather has passed but some or all channels are missing, that's usually indicative that the dish has moved or cables have become detached.

And if the dish is a tiny bit out of alignment then the weather effects will obviously be worse
