Very bright and beautiful. I thought that other interested people would want to know.

The lights lasted for maybe up to 5 seconds and were accompanied by whoosing and fizzing noises which in someways reminded me of fireworks. They appeared to the south and were like blanket lightning but with some streaks added to the show. We are wondering if this was part of a meteor shower. Can anybody enlighten us please.
