Everyone in my office had to pull their blinds down or risk doing damage to their eyes... no joke. Has anyone else seen this? I hope the stars aligned just right to produce this unbelievably bright phenomena, otherwise i'm going to be very disappointed I will no longer be able to look at the beautiful skyline during the sunset anymore.

I live a few blocks east of this building. On a sunny morning, I'll receive an intense blast of light from the rising sun. It lasts about 10 minutes, and I think it's pretty cool, to be honest.
