| Remarks | Addy, our golden retriever is 16 years old. Her bell on her collar rang meaning she had to go outside as her bladder was full. When I opened the front door it appeared as though a lightening bolt had just flashed. I waited for the light to subside and listened for the thunder to roll...but the white light continued...it was daylight outside. Looking up, I then noticed the smoke trail a third of the way across the sky. Still I waited for the thunder...none. I noticed a few wispy clouds up in the sky, but we have 15,000 acres of our area burning from lightening strikes recently. So I didn't think much of the wispy clouds. I didn't get why there was a smoke trail heading down to the horizon. I'm guessing it seemed like daylight for 8-10 seconds but I could see the smoke trail for 30 seconds or so. It was amazing. |
