i know the high quality here is all pixelated. i tried on myspace and it's viewable there:

i was driving from quakertown (18951) to pennsburg (18073) and a friend and i noticed these streaks of light in the sky. when i got to my destination i noticed a big section of the sky was covered in these light rays. reminded me of aurora borealis but it was white light and wasn't all wavy. is it a meteor shower? or what is it???

when i filmed normally the sky was completely black. so i used night vision and then night vision with a slow shutter.

UPDATE: so a bit after i uploaded this, i found that many people in the area had seen it. turns out it's thought to be some slightly rare phenomenon that occurs from ice crystals in the sky and lights on the ground. basically i think it's snowing in the distance and the light from shopping center parking lots somehow bounces around and reflects a beam upward into the sky. at the time i thought it was so strange because there didn't really seem to be too many clouds and i didn't see a beam leading down to the ground. another possibility is that it could have been the northern lights, it was said that at certain times there is a possibility for PA to be able to see them. i go w/ the shopping center lights though. it was a really beautiful and amazing thing to see. i wish i could have better captured it.. had to use night vision for anything to show up.
