Experience Level 2/5
Remarks My husband and I saw a bright, lime-green fireball with yellow/red sparks spraying out from its sides and trailing behind. We viewed the fireball in south-western Manitoba. My sister and her husband also saw the fireball from their home in Neepawa, Manitoba, which is more north in central Manitoba.
