Reports Report 1337qu (Event 1337-2017)

Observer
Name Jeremy B
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I have seen some meteors before but never have I seen any as bright, low flying, or as large. Or even close to this one. I wish I could have got it on video. It was almost comparable to what you would think a middle would look like. I was pumping gas and just happened to look up at the right time and yelled for my girlfriend to look at it and she saw it too.
