Reports Report 347a (Event 347-2011)

Observer
Name sylvia s
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks it was amazing to observe 1st because i live in the middle of Brooklyn NY and its hard to see anything some nights because of the light emission from Manhattan, and 2nd because it is partially cloudy so i was fortunate to spot in between 2 massive cloud covers, which also lead me to question if there had been any other possible occurrences/sightings we would not be able to observe due to the cloud cover..
