| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Matthew T |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | The "fireball" streaked then disappeared for a second, then reappeared on same trajectory path for a few more seconds. I am unsure if it went through a cloud, or there was some small obstruction while driving but it was a fairly clear night and I didn't drive under a noticeable obstruction. |
