Observer
Name
Joe C
Experience Level
2/5
Remarks
The flash I did see was non terminal and seemed projected to the eastern side of the streak as it headed down. The course persisted through this, with the tail produced after the flash (which I would describe as flame like) was dimmer but still mich brighter than the background.
