| Name | Kyle H |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | There was some very light cloud cover, the kind that the moon would be visible through. The fireball was above the clouds when i first noticed it, it illuminated the clouds as it passed behind them, was directly visible from my POV again through a break in the clouds for several degrees, and then passed behind some more clouds which also became illuminated. |
