Reports Report 978fh (Event 978-2021)

Observer
Name Garry S
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks I thought the video cam shadow traces were a very good method to the actual path. From my retracking it appears the fireball passed by east of us maybe 30 degrees east and traneled in a north slightly east direction. The first appearance was maybe 45 degrees up and last was very low in the sky. See attached video.
