Reports Report 4379i (Event 4379-2025)

Observer
Name Patrick G
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks I was driving on I 93 N in the Dorchester area headed towards Boston. Out of the corner of my eye I saw one looked to be a single green firework, only it was coming down, not up and I had enough time to be shocked and stare at it and then it just dissipated. So I think it was around two seconds or just under that. Pretty cool.
