Whatever passed over our house lit up our backyard like a giant spotlight.
Absolutely no sound heard at the time,but 2-3 minutes later I heard a loud extended explosion off to the southwest of our home.
I called Bastrop Co. Sheriff's office to report and the operator told me their office had numerous reports.
