| Name | Cate M |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | The highway was very brightly lit, but this fireball was so visible, bright, and huge that it was unmistakably hurtling from the sky. I have never seen one this big, bright or close to the earth... I go to the beach every year to observe the Perseids. |
