| Name | Katherine F |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | It's very overcast here, but what I saw was very bright before it faded behind a cloud. I think the fireball must have been extremely bright or I wouldn't have seen it at all. I think I was lucky enough to look up right as it passed between two clouds. It seemed to follow a very arched path, and almost appeared to arch downward and behind the cloud before it disappeared. It was a very bright white yellow with a faint hint of light green. I do not know whether any sound accompanied it, as I was riding in a car when I saw it. Very beautiful. |
