Remarks | I was at my back door, looking toward our 4 story tall barn, which is about 30 yards away. The fireball appeared above the barn, and followed the line of the front edge of of the roof, left to right. I have seen alot of falling stars, but never anything this large, bright or with a distinct red tail. |
