Name | Lorene E |
Experience Level | 3/5 |
Remarks | Before the fire ball started, I observed meteor flashes from the sky, coming from the same place in the sky to the right, and somewhat more towards the horizon from where the fireball started - these were strange meteor flashes, almost had reflections around sharp flashes - hope it is one of ours and whatever went down is one of theirs |
