Reports Report 113m (Event 113-2014)

Observer
Name Roseann D
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I was driving along RT 202 North (facing North-East) and it appeared at about 2:00 in my vision. It seemed like it lasted slightly longer than 2 seconds but I believe that was just because I was in shock. There may have been sounds but because I was driving with the windows up, I did not hear anything personally. Time and location are approximate.
