Reports Report 2093c (Event 2093-2015)

Observer
Name Sheila W
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks At first it was small and I thought it was a plane. Then it got bigger and I started to get scared because it was heading right toward me. It seemed so close and was so bright. It looked like it was getting bigger. I rolled down my car window to listen for any sound, but there was none. It was a ball of light followed by a train with streaks of light. It moved across the sky to my left and felt like it was directly above me. It continued toward the mountain. My daughter later showed me videos of a meteor hitting Russia and I said "it looked like that except smaller."
