| Terminal flash | |
|---|---|
| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | After the meteor disappeared below terrain there was a very bright flash illuminating the whole sky in all directions. There is a significant amount of cloud, possibly light & not very high. The flash seemed to be multiple flashes, very fast pulses, initially I thought it resembled lightning, (there has been no lightning that I have seen today - 1 peel of thunder 5 hours before and all quiet since) The flight passage and the flashes all occurred very very quickly. |
