Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I have never seen anything like this. I drive school bus, I was driving north making a left hand turn into driveway now looking west. The intense brightness at dawn was unusual, the intense colors I had never seen before. There is a wind tower farm west of sighting approximately 20 miles away. the wind towers were dwarfed by the sheer size of the anomaly. In my recollection it was the trajectory was odd. when it fell it was almost comma shaped. Where as when you see a shooting star it falls more vertically. The size of it stretched at least the length of 10 wind towers from my location(with towers running North to South on the horizon). The other reason I am reporting this is: I knew my husband was on the road, more than likely west of me. I called him immediately & asked if he saw anything. He exclaimed, you saw it too! My husband and I both saw it, although we were not at the same location. The sheer size of it made him believe it may have landed in the ocean(not an expert by any means). No one I know would ever comprehend, unless you saw it first hand. Because my husband saw it for himself in a different location & has an independent account of his own is the only reason I am reporting.
