Duration: 5-10 seconds
No of observers: 4

Location: Ann Arbor, MI, USA

Shape: Light
Characteristics: Lights on object, Aura or haze around object, Electrical or magnetic effects

Entire sky lit up like it was day time. It was definitely NOT lightening or search lights. Everything got very quiet (we had the car radio on and it got very static and then totally quiet, car was still running though) and the light filled the sky for between 5-10 full seconds. It pulsed a little bit halfway through. Then, everything went back to normal.

Everyone with us was amazed, and everyone agreed that it did not look like lightening. Not to mention lightening and thunderstorms during the winter in Michigan are very rare.

The light was also a bit green.
