| Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 6756538 United States12/20/2012 10:03 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Did it look something like this? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1194370 This is what a high power transformer explosion looks like in the evening. It's quite possible that was it, I must have been close to it then. I didn't hear any noises at all though. Well at least there is a possible scientific explanation, I almost pooped my pants thinking an alien invasion was about to take place. |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 30369718 United States12/20/2012 10:11 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I was driving at night and not far from a transformer that blew up and caused a partial blackout in my city. It looked like someone had set off purple and white fireworks. I thought it was kids playing a prank ... till I saw how many blocks were suddenly dark. |

| Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 6756538 United States12/20/2012 10:31 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Well all is calm here currently outside of the howling storm winds. I have power obviously, but the source of the lights seemed to be away from my home. It probably was a transformer and someone doesn't have power. Those poor people are probably freaking out, I know I would right now if I didn't have power. Anyways, I'll keep checking and if I see anything else will post! |

| Anonymous Coward User ID: 1129812 United States12/20/2012 10:43 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I'm south subs of Chicago, and was just driving home, all of a sudden the entire sky lit up with multiple multi colored brighter then I have ever seen before flashes. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 6756538 We're in the middle of a storm right now, cloudy as hell, and it lit the clouds up bright as hell. No thunder, and it was way crazier then lightning. Serious it was multi colored and lit the entire sky up. I saw 3 flashes light up the sky around me, but couldn't see directly as I was driving, I freaked out, pulled over and looked up, I saw 1 more directly, and I don't know wtf it was. Anyone else see this? Freaky as hell, i'm a bit scared. Transformers blowing? |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 13571375 The recess isn't pinned because it's the same bullshit we hear when it's budget time everytime for the last few years now. I'm tired of hearing it. Absolutely nothing will change until EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THOSE ASSHOLES ARE OUT OF OFFICE and tptb have no more minons. |

The entire sky lit up. It totally freaked me out. I really want to know what the cause is. |
