| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Scott Y |
| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | The time is as approximate as I can remember, give or take 10 minutes. This was also witnessed by my mother and father. My mother also thought it was a meteor. My dad called it a firework when asked what he thought it was. All of us were traveling the same way in separate cars directly in line. When we arrived at our destination, I asked if they saw it and they both had. |
