The sky was the color of pea-green soup and the wind's blew debree everywhere. I lived in an apartment complex that had a padio-porch that faced towards the east. I sat and watched as the storm passed on through.<BR/><BR/>During a moment as the storm raged, the wind calmed down a bit and I saw a flash of red lightning shoot horizontally across the sky, then about a second and a half later, it was followed by a horizontal shot of blue lightning in the exact same direction, and position in the sky as the red one.<BR/><BR/>I have always wondered how and what it was. From a scientific perspective, lightning can be colored by the pollutents in the sky acting as a filtered lens; simular to how the moon can appear reddish orange at time. And lightning can and does move in a horizontal direction...but it seemed too amazing or coincidental that two bolts would be different colors and go in the same direction within such a small spit second of time.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617836.post-39893703371803017152007-01-18T11:08:00.000-06:002007-01-18T11:08:00.000-06:00HK3fan,
Your response is very important.
You a...HK3fan,<br /> <br />Your response is very important.<br /> <br />You are willing to explore the possibility that light discharges seen in clouds are originating due to natural phenomena, but not through high technology.<br /> <br />You also date observations of such phenomena to at least the 1960s.<br /> <br />Let's try, and go back even further. Human beings have been observing weather for much longer than fifty years, and have been recording those observations.<br /> <br />Has anyone heard, or read of any such multi spectral displays originating from clouds dating further back than the age of aviation?<br /> <br />I for one do not believe the lights were link to the aura.<br /> <br />We (the scientific community) have discovered a link between lower atmospheric electrical discharges, and electrical discharges in the ionosphere (i.e., red sprites, and blue jets).<br /> <br />However, what we need is a model. How is it that oxygen within a low hanging cloud is excited in such quantities that the cloud flashes bright red? <br /> <br />Microwaves on a specific frequency?<br /> <br />What about green? I've seen the aurora even from Central, Illinois on several occasions, and I have seen the green colors too.<br /> <br />The colors I saw the night of the ice storm ranged from a dark green, to a bright green.<br /> <br />From my limited research meteorologist do not believe that such light displays are linked to the aurora.<br /> <br />My own guess is technology.<br /> <br />JPJeromeProphethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01408226707299885597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617836.post-1165491697103127422006-12-07T05:41:00.000-06:002006-12-07T05:41:00.000-06:00Crazy?

Very doubtful!<BR/><BR/>I saw the lights this past Thurs. early friday morning and can tell you as one raised in Minnesota that such flashing lights are not that uncommon during ice and sleet storms. Why? I dunno..... neighbors often felt it was the result of the Aurora Bureolis(sp), the Northern Lights, being seen through the clouds. I've gotta say that the colors present are within the range of colors seen with the NL. <BR/><BR/>I've seen light shows like this going back into the early 1960s (we moved to Minnesota from central IL in Jan 1961) and neighbors up there had been seeing them all their livesAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617836.post-1165206168108313212006-12-03T22:22:00.000-06:002006-12-03T22:22:00.000-06:00Rich, I noticed that as well. Most people would ...Rich,<BR/> <BR/>I noticed that as well. <BR/> <BR/>Most people would assume that the lights were a result of power lines, heavy with ice, either falling to the ground, or swinging and shorting at the transform.<BR/> <BR/>I no am in no way suggesting that there weren't many instances in which charged power lines weren't doing exactly that.<BR/> <BR/>I've watched in fascination, and horror, as a tornado came straight into our neighborhood. I watched as the sky filled with sudden purplish blue flashes as transformers shorted out as the tornado advanced.<BR/> <BR/>I've seen many similar blue flashes in another ice storm which hit this area many years ago.<BR/> <BR/>Any normal person would assume that those strange colored lights must have been the result of ice shorting out power lines.<BR/> <BR/>Most people have little reason to believe anything other than that. <BR/> <BR/>Interestingly, it is exactly this assumption which allows for such a moment to be exploited.<BR/> <BR/>Read that again, because it is important.<BR/> <BR/>If I fly up into a cloud, and start flashing a red, green, or blue strobe on an average night - there will at least be some rumblings about the source of those lights.<BR/> <BR/>If those same flashes occur on a night in which there is an alternative explanation (plausible denial for those whose fragile psyche need it) then those flashes are much easier to produce without causing a major problem.<BR/> <BR/>Now let's look at the coincidence of the light flashes, and the power flickering.<BR/> <BR/>I noticed that too. I never mentioned it, because I felt it would be a bit too much to ask from my readers.<BR/> <BR/>I'm certain that most of my regular readers don't believe any of what I write about these types of subjects.<BR/> <BR/>I have a very good friend who also blogs, and while he politely tolerates my post on this type of subject he never (ever) comments on them! Despite our friendship he doesn't believe in any of this at all. <BR/> <BR/>When one of your best buddies believes you're either insane, or totally ignorant, for blogging about such topics, you tend to take things a bit conservatively.<BR/> <BR/>But Rich you mentioned it so I'm going to address the subject. <BR/> <BR/>Rich, this isn't the first time I've seen such phenomena (i.e., flickering lights from clouds at the same time power flickers within the home).<BR/> <BR/>I've seen such phenomena many times, over many decades, and when no type of storm what so ever was present (ice storm or otherwise).<BR/> <BR/>Having said that, I'll now destroy my credibility, what little I have by launching an explanation.<BR/> <BR/>Although it may be a natural phenomena I'm inclined to believe otherwise.<BR/> <BR/>Could it be a type of EMF dampening field?<BR/> <BR/>I've noticed that the effect isn't confined to power coming from a power line into a home.<BR/> <BR/>It also appears to effect power from a battery going into a flashlight - especially if the flashlight's battery is already somewhat weak.<BR/> <BR/>How does a flicker of "lighting" within a cloud cause a dampening of energy reaching a light bulb with the rather simple circuit of a flashlight? <BR/> <BR/>With enough money, and a very short period of time I suspect this wouldn't take much to develop, and probably was developed in the 1960s. <BR/> <BR/>Now why would anyone want to take advantage of a storm by testing EMF weapons on a metro area that is already under siege from wind, rain, snow, and ice?<BR/> <BR/>Because they could, and because it provides perfect cover for running such an operation.<BR/> <BR/>Resultant harm?<BR/> <BR/>Unknown.<BR/> <BR/>Possible gain?<BR/> <BR/>Additional development of such a weapon, and experience in using it under extreme weather conditions.<BR/> <BR/>Are we lab rats?<BR/> <BR/>Perhaps, but if there was no harm done, and such weapons are covertly advanced with the goal to defend us - perhaps that's the price we pay for our freedom, and prosperity.<BR/> <BR/>Having said all that, perhaps I'm just crazy.JeromeProphethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01408226707299885597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13617836.post-1165184084625252712006-12-03T16:14:00.000-06:002006-12-03T16:14:00.000-06:00I saw those multi-colored flashes as well Thursday...I saw those multi-colored flashes as well Thursday night. I was pulling into that 24 hour megastore just southwest of spfld when it happened (went to buy a kerosene heater). <BR/><BR/>The flashes coincided with a power outage, and I speculated at the time that it was all those incredibly bright street lights at the car dealerships behind the store going off, on, off (with accompanying power surges) that caused the bizarre light display.Rich Millerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05405714376169753223noreply@blogger.com
