Reports Report 159n (Event 159-2015)

Observer
Name Katie B
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I was near finishing my run when I saw a big bright flash just off to my left. In an instant it turned into a thin streak falling down. It was hard to tell if there were any sounds as it is quite windy tonight. The sky looks somewhat hazy and there aren't as many stars visible as normal, so finer details from the fireball would have been difficult to see if I wasn't already running.
