Experience Level | 3/5 |
Remarks | I have seen several fireballs over the years so I feel my description is accurate. Interestingly, the meteor was first spotted in a window reflection by the person who was with me at the time. She freaked out and turned around causing me to do the same to spot the meteor. We did not see the event initiate, but we did watch it for approximately 3-4 seconds |
