Yes, its from Brazil... And no, it is not the end of world.. its just another transformer as usual... How I know? Because where I live there is a transformer that LOVE to blow up... you wouldn't believe how many times that transformer has blow up and it's the same effect you see in the video.

I didn't check the exactly location but I guess is in São Paulo because we had really heavy rain today.

BTW it exploded again lol... luck me the energy that go for that transformer is not the same the one feed my building.

From Downtown Baltimore.

My lights have been on and off, for NO apparent reason. Yes it's raining but the wind is minimal to none. However it's been happening since 9pm on the 20th.

Honestly, since I've moved here I only lost power once, during the superstorm, and the outage an hour ago lasted longer than the one Sandy caused, with NO wind..... Weird

You realize that at the exact same moment I started to read this thread while in central Indiana, electric sparks arced over my house making an otherwordly 'buzz' sound, the sky flashed, and my lights flickered shutting down my computer.

Yes...it was just a transformer (or possibly more than one...I haven't got the whole story yet), and yes a massive winter storm is currently hitting my town (meaning it's the likely cause in this case)

Nonetheless.....Thanks to the OP, for momentarily Freaking Me The &%^$ Out!!!!!
