Hypotheses
The storm
The storm is an atmospheric phenomenon in which the inside of clouds or between the cloud and the earth's surface arise electrical discharges - lightning accompanied by thunder. It is quite a common natural phenomenon in certain situations could be considered something abnormal, such as when it appears under unusual conditions or unfamiliar to the eyewitness. A vivid example is the so-called "snow storm" (or "snow storm"), i.e. thunderstorm, which is when rain falls heavy snow, freezing rain or ice pellets.

- The outbreak was caused by the explosion of a lamp HPS installed on the street light pole is opposite one of the buildings Monguors. Was heard cotton, the spread of light due to the clouds and white snow, - said the witnesses.
It should be noted, the abbreviation HPS stands for arc-sodium lamp tubular. Design and principle of operation of such lamps is not extremely difficult. "Burner" - a cylindrical discharge tube made of pure aluminum oxide and is enclosed in a transparent glass cylinder. The internal space of the burner is filled with a mixture of mercury vapor and sodium, with a small amount ignitors xenon gas.
As we reported earlier, Syzran Amateur astronomer Samir Rafiki spoke about the fact that the source of the bright flash was one of the brightest meteors from the ongoing meteor shower "Geminid", the peak of activity which falls on Dec. Are those bright meteors of the relatively large mass of fireballs. When burned in the atmosphere, according to Samir, they form a momentary flash in the sky.
In turn, your answer was given and Syzran meteorologists. According to them, 11 November in Syzran were observed in dense clouds. Therefore, seen by the townspeople atmospheric phenomenon, as suggested by the weatherman, could be the glare of a distant lightning storm.
