Observer
Name Nancy I
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks It was very quick and green. It was spherical with no tail or fragmentation. I was very elevated on Pottersville road looking out to the horizon and hills when I saw it. I am not 100% sure of my location as I was driving, but I was driving west on Pottersville toward Hacklebarney Road/Black River Road.
