Experience Level
2/5
Remarks
I would have mistaken it as a firework if only I didn't see it going down towards the horizon. I did see a hint of red in the beginning before it turned green. Just wanted to add my sighting to further add that there was a sighting of this meteor/comet on the east coast.
