Reports Report 810a (Event 810-2014)

Observer
Name Matthew H
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks I did note the time of 11:56PM CDT, so time is definitely accurate to the minute. The tail was uneven and more ribbon-like. Some parts of the tail were thicker than others. Clear and dry night with stars clearly visible inside the city. The meteor/fireball was brighter than any other stars in that sector of the sky by a significant margin.
