Experience Level
3/5
Remarks
I was sitting in my living room on Washburn Heights in Linn county. My home is almost half way up the butte and I have a clear northwest view of the Willamette Valley. I saw the white/green meteor brightly streak across the sky. It would have been visible by people driving on interstate 5.
