Reports Report 264ba (Event 264-2014)

Observer
Name Edward C
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks Saw it while reffing a soccer game. Was standing on the sideline on a cold night here in North Texas when a huge flash caught my attention over ahead, and I caught it just as was streaking over and off into the distance The coach behind me also saw it too, but strangely no one else did. Probably because it went by so fast. It was extremely bright though, sort of like the meteor in Russia, except the brightness was smaller, so it didn't blind the atmosphere.
