Observer
Name Gayle L
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks My husband and I were driving north on highway 99 near Biggs, CA watching a lightning storm to our NNE (Paradise-Forest Ranch, CA area) when the the meteor appeared to our NNW. From our vantage point, it looked like it came down in Chico, CA, but apparently it did not hit the earth at all, thank goodness! A very memorable view for us!
