| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | It took my breath away. I initially thought of a bomb coming out of the sky especially when it lit up green at the end. It kind of scared me since I was driving towards it. I find it interesting that the reports give a direction but what I saw does not correlate to that. I had texted my husband right after I saw it and I stated "something just fell out of the sky." To me, the "fireball" came straight down, as if God dropped it. |
