Large explosion? NW of Fuerte at sea

[TamaraEnLaPlaya]

Did anyone else witness a large explosion? at sea just before 9pm this evening? Approx NW of me in Tindaya. Only lasted a few seconds but a pinprick of light suddenly grew to a large half sphere on the horizon before disappearing again, whole thing lasted about 3 seconds.

Looking on Marine Traffic there are a few ships in roughly the vicinity.

There now appears to be a major electrical storm to the NNW so I guess it was the start of that. It's all very low down though and lots of balls of light that then throw out streaks of lightening - fascinating!
Unless of course it's a re-enactment of the Spanish Armada ….

I'll move this thread to the Weather section.
