Reports Report 3434ads (Event 3434-2013)

Observer
Name Beth O
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks What I observed was bright flashes of lights (like lightning) across the entire sky, from horizon to horizon that occurred between 1 and 2 seconds. The sky was overcast so the light reflected off the clouds. I was not able to observe the fireball itself. I have never seen anything like this before.
