| Name | Rita H |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I saw this while driving home from Walmart on State Route 664 South in Hocking Country, Ohio. Traveling north on 664 I saw the fireball on my right. It was just above the horizon. It was very bright and lasted only seconds, but I got a good view of it. It was orange, blue and white with a short tail and just simply disappeared. As low as it was I believe it may have landed in or near Hocking County, Ohio. |
