instant black out and sudden bright light in the sky

Hello, earlier today on March 12, 2010 around 11am I spoke with someone over the phone at your center regarding what I saw yesterday on March 11, 2010 around 8:30-9:00 pm. I was parked on the street by myself waiting for my sister to come out of my mother’s house because I was picking her up. The street lights were on, and nobody was out on the street. While I was sitting there waiting for my sister to come outside, I experienced something that was very unusual and strange. I saw everything turn pitch black and the sky turn into a bright light. I know it doesn’t sound like something out of the ordinary but trust me it was. I keep replaying it in my head and it just doesn’t make any sense to me. The best way that I can describe it is like a sudden and instant flash. The thing that made me wonder if it could be linked to something abnormal is because when the incident was occurring I saw the sky and it was like nothing like I have ever seen before. The whole entire sky turned as if it were daylight for a split second, while everything else was blackened.

After the incident happened, I kept replaying it over my head and tried to make logical sense out of it, but nothing seemed to add up. Then I started to look around me to see if anyone else saw what I had just seen, but there was not a soul. Since I was on my own, it did cross my mind that perhaps it was my imagination but then my sister came out about a minute later and casually asked me if I had seen a flash or if it was just her. Without me even mentioning anything to her. When she asked me that, I knew that it wasn’t my imagination anymore, it was far more than that and that this actually did happen. I am just confused on what I did see because it was honestly something very strange and unusual. I am not trying to conclude that this can be something related to aliens but I am curious to know if you guys can give me any sort of information regarding this.
