| Name | Michelle M |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | The fireball disappeared while I was watching it- as it crossed over Main Street from my point of view. Another person in the car with me also observed it. We were driving directly south on Main Street, and it had crossed just to the left side of the road when it disappeared, along with the tail of light behind it. I thought it was a firework because it didn't continue to streak across the sky (and I hadn't realized meteors could be green), but I saw the note in today's paper online and in reading further think it might help you track the speed to know at what point it stopped being visible. |
