| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | The meteor caught me of guard on the 405 southbound on the way to Santa Ana airport. It was a beautiful and wonderful site.Everyone driving southbound on the 405 in the morning must have seen this phenomenon.Beautiful green, with a long tail. I,m thinking San Diego or Possible Mexico where it burst was over. It looked quite large for as far as it looked. It was rare to see it appear so close to the earth and burst. |
