Original news
PAPENDRECHT, ZH — Ik zat tv te kijken en opeens in het westen lichtflitsen hoog in de lucht, net zoals morsecode, zo zag het eruit, op onweersradar gekeken maar geen detectie.
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.
Light sources on clouds
Lasers, searchlights, car headlights and other light sources of sufficient power can form a column of light in a dusty or foggy atmosphere, various patterns on low clouds, fog or haze. Also, the rays can highlight parts of the cloud, objects or birds, giving them bizarre shapes.
Searchlights can shine with one beam, several. They can be stationary, move, and also form spinning carousels on the clouds, which can change shape and color.
It often seems that the light source is located at the point where the beam hits the cloud, and not vice versa.
Investigation
In this village, as in nearby, according to gismeteo.ru it was overcast, but no thunderstorms. It's probably a reflection on the clouds of flashes from a disco or something similar.
A similar observation #1584362161 at the same time, but in the city of 's-Gravendeel.
