Reports Report 2765ad (Event 2765-2013)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Venessa N |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I was driving home and had my radio up so there was no way for me to associate sound with what I saw. I did turn off the radio as I was stopped in the middle of the road starring at the fireball though, and heard no sound inside my car. The fireball did light up the sky pretty bright. I had been occasionally glancing at the sky on my drive home because the moon is a crescent orange moon tonight. The fireball was on the opposite side of the sky from the moon. There are a few scattered clouds out tonight, but not enough to hinder views of the stars. It was about 57 degrees F when this occurred. |
