Reports Report 3639l (Event 3639-2018)

Observer
Name Bill K
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I watched to see if there was any explosion but it went on the other side of the hills. There was another man sitting next to me and when I asked if he saw it, he said, "Yeah, I saw it, that was weird." I was at a men's invitational BBQ so I don't know the name of the other witness or I would tell him about this site so he could add his perspective. I did not look at my watch for the precise time so the reported time is approximate but fairly accurate based on other scheduled events this evening.
