Observer
Name Debbie B
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I tried to answer these questions best I could but I really only saw the green flash that was very bright and nothing like I have ever seen before. I was driving east on 9 and the whole northern sky lit up with a flash it was the whole horizon. My mom and daughter were both with and all of us were like "what was that?" Very strange feeling.
