| Name | Amanda J |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I was driving home and initially thought the light was headlights in my rear view mirror, so I glanced up and saw a very bright yellow/white (almost sparkling) light falling toward the horizon. It may have started before I saw it, because I had a limited field of vision out of my front windshield. It turned almost orange over the 3-5 second duration and disappeared behind the treeline. There was no trail, it was just very big- About the size of a fingernail on a hand held at arms length. |
