| Name | Susie W |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | It was very large, and as it went by my bedroom window on our house high on the bluff, I listened for an explosion because I expected it to hit the water and explode. I think it was about 1/2 mile from our bluff, and about 100 feet in diameter, like a ball of fire. There was no noise at all. I looked for news about it the next day and even called the Coast Guard to see if anything had happened on the Lake. Never heard anything . |
