Why did the skies flash blue in Greece overnight?

By News10NBC

GREECE, N.Y. — The skies over the Greece area flashed bright blue on Monday night and News10NBC is working to learn why.

A viewer, Joe Hendrix, took a video around Peck Road in Parma, looking south toward Greece. RG&E said a high power line coming down caused an outage in the Ogden and Gates area. However, they couldn’t confirm that the outage caused the blue flash.

If you have any footage of the blue flash, please share it with us by emailing it to webmaster@whec.com.
