| Name | Alicia W |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | Both my husband and I saw this. We think it might be a firework, but it did not look like any firework either of us has ever seen. It did not look like any meteor I have ever seen, either. I have seen meteor showers before, and this object was extremely bright, extremely long, and it was brightly colored. |
