Observer
Name K P
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks My first daytime observation! Was in the car driving down from the mountains on Sky Ranch Road towards Oakhurst, CA. No obstructions, sky was clear as it passed in front of the windshield. Fireball was to the south/southeast and heading away to the southeast. It looked white in color, faint in the bright blue daytime sky. Very brief in duration. Seemed larger in the front section and trailed off faintly at the back, perhaps a trailing section broke away.
