| Remarks | I've never seen anything this Great before!! Nothing like this!!!! I was randomly looking out SW window from bed when it caught my eye. I noticed it from the end corner of my roof until it was out of view. It was a really Close-looking, Silvery- Bright meteor, until is bowed-out and changed to Orange as it continued on across sky disappearing behind a distant mound of trees on the horizon. At least 12+secs in all. I Feared, at first, it was a crashing plane , but no explosion, no boom, no shaking ground & no next day news report!...I realized it Was a meteor or maybe Fireball. This happened, Sunday 4:25am Dec,1,2013 |
