That’s odd! I live within a few feet of this area and I was home facing the window at my computer and never saw a flash and never heard thunder. It was nice out when I saw the fire and a gentleman was sitting in the parking lot of the church just watching it. We assumed they were burning in the ditch as a lot of people do up here in the country.
