| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Chris W |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | My first guess was lightening based on brilliance, but there was way more of a terminal effect than I've ever seen, and color was wrong. Other possibility is maybe a giant transformer explosion, as we were seeing progressive power failures in the region during snow storma. Haven't been able to find info on it yet. |
