| Name | Gloria M |
| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | My observation, looking northwest, while driving, this appeared to be a bright bluish glow, visually similar but longer than a power transformer explosion (which I have seen hit by lightening). This morning glow increased in brightness, then decreased in about 2 seconds. |
