Name Linda
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I was driving south on US1 when just before I came to the SR405 overpass I saw what looked to be a green fireball with a tail the same color. It traveled east to west a little more than halfway in the sky. It looked to be going in a downword arch. It left no smoke trail. The duration was 4 to 5 seconds.
