Name
Eric H
Experience Level
3/5
Remarks
Observed a green fireball moving from approximately NNE to NE/E out of a living room window. Fireball was short lived but bright green and bright enough to draw my attention from the TV. My view was obscured by a neighboring fence line so was not able to observe it break up.
