| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Nancy B |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | The light did not last longer than 12 seconds, the after glow was longer. However, the noise lasted for about 12 minutes. It would come and go. It started before I saw the light. This what made me curious enough to go out and see what all the noise was about. |
