Experience Level
2/5
Remarks
It looked like a meteor dropping vertically to the ground; there was a vivid light green fireball and green trail headed straight to the ground. The green streak disappeared behind fir trees on the horizon. I wouldn't be surprised if it impacted the ground in central Olympia.
