| Remarks | I was walking westbound when I saw a fiery trail surface over the houses on the south side of the street and descend over the north side. The ball was greenish and the tail was an orange-yellow. At first I thought it was some kind of fireworks, but there was no noise. I was talking to my brother on the cell phone. When I asked if there were meteors, he said there was usually a shower on 8-11, our mother\'s birthday. It was like nothing I had ever seen, so I did some research, which brought me to your sight. |
