| Name | Stephen G |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | 1) Time of event is ballpark/broadly estimated. Did not check, but feel it is reasonable. Big range though. Could've been perhaps as early as 245, or as late as 330. 2) observed another bright green meteor maybe a half hr beforehand. Was completely different angle. Started high in sky over ocean(looking south) shooting towards surface |
