| Name | Nicole P |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I was looking out a skylight window. It was very hard to tell direction as the ENTIRE window was bright as the daytime sky, then glowing bright. We did not see a "ball". But we saw what we thought was a lightening streak after the glow died down a bit. We can't agree on the direction it was going. But we think it was close as it shook our entire house like a mini earthquake during the 3 booms, lasting about one second each. Hope you find it! This was our first experience with a meteor! |
