Reports Report 1347j (Event 1347-2023)

Observer
Name Jay H
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I wasn't looking outside, I was up reading on my phone in the dark. The room lit up like car headlights were shining in and when I turned to look out the window I saw it fizzle into a narrow fan of flame colored streamers like a firework. I looked at the time and it was near the last quarter of the minute of 12:44 am. I waited for a sound and heard a deep, low, short boom at 12:47.
