| Name | Jo Ann S |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | Really, the light appeared as a flash such as flash of lightning, and I waited for some thunder to accompany it, but none came. It was very noticeable and my husband who was driving the car was aware of the flash. We were in the country and there were no city lights and only an occasional yard light. It was quite bewildering at the time. Thanks to the Rochester Post-Bulletin for its article on the phenomenon. |
