Reports Report 4922bw (Event 4922-2018)
| Observer | |

| Name | Kollin S |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I saw a very shallow arc from left to right as I was facing south on my place in the country 5 miles north of Aspermont, Texas. It was low on the sky. I thought somebody in town was shooting an old firework. It was a popping type flash, turquoise in color. I heard a boom earlier in the evening, but nothing when I observed the arc in the sky. I'm reporting because of an article I read this morning online. |
