| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Angela F |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | Viewed WNW, viewing site is at lower elevation so my perspective of horizon may be skewed. Was able to see the fireball above the hill, near Shirley Bohn Rd. Appeared to have been as bright and as close as if someone had shot a flare behind the houses. |
