Screeching noise with bright light.It was storming heavily all night long, I went outside to call a friend and smoke a cigarette.When I called we were talking for about 3 minutes and then I stated to here a screeching noise.Well, I figured living in the country that it was probably just a bird, such as an owl, but then a light appeared. The light was flickering, I assumed that it was a helicopter but then I remembered that it was storming pretty badly ten minutes prior to this. After about 5 minutes, it disappeared.((NUFORC Note: Witness elects to remain totally anonymous; provides no contact information. PD))
