| Name | Jeri R |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I was travelling west on Hwy 16 just east of North Battleford, SK when I first thought it was a slow falling star that appeared above the horizon to the south at the river valley on the south side of the highway. It appeared to be falling from the south to north, but towards the ground..I witnessed the Nov, 2008 meteor & smoke trail (which landed in the Lloydminster area, SK), we also witnessed another meteor in the Rockhaven, SK area and heard the sonic boom from that one several years ago, as well. |
