| Remarks | 2nd fireball I've seen this year from this location. This one appeared to lead with the red followed by a big green fireball with a big, beautiful, sparkly tail. Next time I will listen and watch closely for the after effects, sound, smoke, fragments. 2 people near me didn't see it. Next time I will say, "fireball 11 o'clock, or "meteor look up". I did try to note my locations and the angles. Both times I drew a picture for my self. I saw a huge fireball that looked like it went over my house when I was about 10 years old. Happy Looking 😊 |
