Observer
Name Kristy K
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I was driving with my son so I was unable to watch it as it fell below the tree line. It stayed bright white the entire time it was in our view. We watched the meteor shower in August and nothing even compares to being as close or as bright as this one tonight.
