Observer
Name
Kevin B
Experience Level
1/5
Remarks
As I was indoors in a tightly-packed urban area, my view was indirect. It was bright enough to illuminate windows on the houses to my north and grab my attention from inside my house. It was as bright as a large mortar-type firework from a close distance.
