Reports Report 696as (Event 696-2013)

Observer
Name Thomas M
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks There was no smoke or glow trail 'after' (what I thought was a shooting star) fizzled-out; but 'during' the fall while still aglow, the fire/glow trail was impressive. Just figured it was the closest shooting-star I had seen, until I got home and saw Reports of meteors on the news. Hope this info helpful to you folks.
