Name | Kirsten H |
Experience Level | 2/5 |
Remarks | The streak across the sky was so low, I would have been afraid of getting hit if I'd been closer. It was only two houses away from me, and barely cleared the tree line. It disappeared above a greenbelt. I'm going to hunt for remnants today. It was like a huge bonfire, streaking quickly across the sky. It was so amazing and disappeared so quickly, it was almost hard to believe I saw it! |
