| Name | Bob A |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | This sighting is much larger than the usual shooting star. From my location, Mt Jacinto is West and the meteorite disappeared behind the mountain before it was completely burned up. Because of the fireball size, some observers might say it is possible it the ground. |
