Huge fireball lights up sky after 'explosion' in Oxfordshire.
A huge fireball has been seen in Oxfordshire after reports of an "explosion" in the area.
The mystery bang was reported earlier this evening, with people sharing footage of the fire on social media.
Sky News understands the incident centres around a Severn Trent Water facility.
A witness told the Oxford Mail they saw a "strange pulsing sky out of our windows looking northwest of Oxford".
"I'm guessing it's a fire caused by the lightning storm that passed over," the witness added.
One person wrote on social media: "Anybody else in Oxford just see that fireball?", adding there had been a "loud explosion".
Another person added: "So strange, sky was pulsating."
A yellow weather warning for thunderstorms and heavy rain has been issued by the Met Office over Oxfordshire.
Stuart Reid wrote on X (formerly known as Twitter): "Lightning strike near Oxford (A34). Struck something that burst in to flames."
Ana Cavey, who lives in Somerton, about 15 miles north of Oxford, told Sky News: "We've had the most unbelievable thunder and lightning storm ever... it came out of nowhere and the noise was incredible.
