Reports Report 1511mm (Event 1511-2014)

Observer
Name Taylor G
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks The only thing I was not pretty confident was exact location, I'm road tripping to Miami and pulled over to stretch, we got off on an exit where there was, and pulled into over to chill for a minute. ..I put me on the 495 South around Roanoke Rapids but I could have been South or close by. I know the exit said campground... I'm with two other guys that were in the car while I was outside. I'm the one who really saw it all happen, they just saw the night sky lit up. It was the most surreal thing I have ever experienced. ..I instantly went for answers. ..I think it could have been a bolide. It was huge, and way bright , coolest thing ever! I would like a response or any info If possible
