| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Susan E |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I was driving out of the Walmart Supercenter at 8001 US 19 North, waiting at the traffic light facing west, and I saw what looked like a brightly lit solid blue ball with a very sharp outline zooming from overhead straight ahead through the sky in a westward and downward motion. It wasn't very big, and did not have a trail behind it like a comet or meteorite usually have. |
