| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Ben M |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | The picture that I uploaded was not my own but the vantage point seemed similar to what my wife and I saw. My wife saw a green flash when it appeared but I did not see it until it was moving across the sky, white, with the long tails. We were walking into a restaurant and the people sitting outside were all scrambling to get their phones out. |
