Reports Report 3434aqi (Event 3434-2013)

| Name | William R |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I first noticed the meteor when the sky lit up, I at first thought it was lighting, then looked up and saw the object flying in a North Westerly direction across the sky. I have seen one larger Meteor in St. Paul Mn around 1990. I hope I filled out the report correctly, I added the direction it was flying because I was a little confused about the form. It was great fun to see. William C. Reed |
