Reports Report 92fx (Event 92-2014)

Observer
Name Humphrey M
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks This was at dusk, a little while after sun set but when the sky was still light. The fireball appeared to be underneath very high clouds (I may very well be wrong about this - it was dusk) before disappearing behind low clouds. It was extremely bright and threw sparks/fragments in a tail. Additionally, it was the coolest thing I've ever seen in the sky.
