Observer
Name Holly F
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks Both my partner and I saw it fall directly in front of our path. I am not exactly certain about the position on the hwy. Because of the extreme darkness of the area we were in the fireball appeared extremely brilliant! Much larger and closer than any shooting star we have ever seen. It looked like green fire! with red and white lights sparkling from it! VERY impressive sight to see late at night traveling through the dark.
