| Name | James S |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | Was driving home from work, at the exact spot I indicated on the map, I saw the fireball brilliant white trailing red sparks tracking from my right to left and slightly downward. It appeared to be below the level of the tree line, I saw it through the break in the tree line made by the road. The moment I lost sight of it I looked at the time on the clock in my truck that I keep syncronized 1 minute faster than the time clock at Palmetto Health Richland. |
