Hopefully, someone can tell me what this is. Last night I was relaxing in the pool, floating on my lounge. Several times I saw "heat lightning," which I'm familiar with, but several times the sky seemed to have a reddish hue to it. (It was after 10 p.m.)
As I watched the skies, a number of times I saw in the far distance the sky glow red and yellow, as if there was a large fire or an explosion. Each time it lasted for maybe 20-30 seconds, only to make a repeat appearance a few minutes later; this happened several times.
Have any of you ever seen anything like this and, if so, do you know what it is? I've never seen this before in any of the different parts of the country I've lived in.
Was it similiar to what happened in Fort Worth Texas a couple of months ago?
Philippians 3:20-21 “But our citizenship is in heaven, and from it we await a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body to be like his glorious body, by the power that enables him even to subject all things to himself.”
I've experienced this myself several times within the last 10 years. Similiar to a transmitter blowing up. Very bright flash of light that lit up the whole sky and then the sky would glow a weird color.

It wasn't all over the place like Ft. Worth - it was like one BIG blast each time, and in the same area. The first time I saw it I thought it was a plane crash, but didn't hear anything.

There were some large Sun CME's erupting the other day... spaceweather.com/ Read about the Night Time Solar Burst on August 4th.
but Aurora's are usually blue/green, right?
No auroras are not always green/blue, especially the further one lives from the poles. The greens dominate in the Arctic. Red/purple is often the color displayed in aurora's south of 45 degrees latitude.
