Remarks | It impacted me enough where I was googleing it the next day to see if something exploded in the sky. I was facing Southwest and it was definitely above the horizon, above my eye level, It shot from right to left, A slightly upward angle. It was amazing. And I hope I have the date right. it was definitely a Wednesday night but it could have been the Wednesday before. |
