Reports Report 1170f (Event 1170-2018)

Observer
Name Brandon d
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks I was driving so I wasn't able to hear any sounds (if there were any). I reported the time when I first noticed the fireball, not necessarily when it first entered my field of vision. It could have started above the height of my windshield. I estimated the data I reported as best as I could as I was not able to document the sighting until several hours after it occurred.
