Solar Flare

I was driving over to Ben's last night through a stretch of countryside and noticed a really bright, red light in the sky, at first I thought it was a plane's light but usually there are white lights as well.  I made sure to check the time on my radio 7:37 just in case I was actually witnessing a UFO sighting and would have to give a precise account of what I saw :P
Hey you never know! I watched it for about a minute.  The big red light eventually split into two and the second light started falling.  I turned a corner and it was gone :(

Bad picture but unfortunately best one I could find on the web!

I'd actually kind of forgot about it until someone posted it on my friend's emaya's facebook page, explaining it was a solar flare!!  Kinda of sad to learn it wasn't a UFO and that I wont be needed for my telling tale!
