| Name | HELEN S |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I observed this from a first floor window. At first I thought it might be a plane, then perhaps a lantern and then as it got closer it looked like a firery orange ball. I could see flickering flames and was watching it head on. It passed over the house and I rushed to the other side of the room to another window where I just about saw it disappearing from view. All this happened in seconds, I just about had time to call my husband who saw it too. |
