| Name | Jennifer R |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | Could clearly see the white ball, surrounded by green and blue, outer part and most of the tail was flaming yellow/orange. Came down from the east at a steeper angle than the foothills near Francis Peak and disappeared behind after flashing. It was huge. We often see cars up on Skyline Road driving at night and have seen wildfires here. It was bigger that that, about the size of a nickel or quarter if you held it at arms length towards the horizon/foothills. |
