Name chirstina n
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks this light was an intense flash like nothing i have ever seen. much more bright then lightening although seemed to happen quickly. It also see to light up the sky for miles around us. It was dark so we could see it clearly like a flash of a camera. I spent the next few hours discussing it with a family member and friend who also witnessed it and we could not figure out what we saw.
