Observer
Name Rachelle G
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I was sitting in the house. Looking out at the sky and saw the fireball circle go across the sky and gone. Not sure if it burnt out or just was hidden by the hill then? Brightest thing I have ever seen. I didn't see a tail. My husband saw something once similar here also and his was found to be true on a report. I don't know there is supposed meteor showers tonight. But this was a huge ball in the sky not like falling stars or tails. I don't know it was super bright like nothing else I have seen. And my time is within 3-4 minutes that I reported. I didn't think to report until my husband said and then guessed the time from his mention.
