| Remarks | I found your site as I was investigating any reports of what I saw. Some other folk are reporting it on Facebook. It was quite extraordinary. Upon reading, it really must have been a meteor as the description really fits. It was just getting dark and I was walking down the driveway with the dogs. I thought that a car was coming as the road lit up suddenly. Only a flash really. Almost as if the streelights were flashing on. And then I looked up and saw what at first looked like a shooting star but there was a lot of white "mass" light around it. Going very fast. and then as it tailed off or "ended" there was a lot of colour - green, blue and yellow. Incredible! |
