Reports Report 3378df (Event 3378-2014)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Robert B |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | At first I thought it was a meteor, but afterwards dismissed it as some kind of green roman candle or other firework. It appeared very close and might have been accompanied by a hissing sound, but I was also standing next to a busy intersection so I can't be sure that the sound I heard was related to the meteor. |
