Reports Report 3032hc (Event 3032-2014)

Observer
Name Michael D
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I was in my truck heading north. Huge flash which lit up area like daylight. Maybe a second later saw bright flash out of driver's window with brightness of full moon which caused me to turn my head left in time to see the final streak from above and behind me to left terminating in the object breaking up into several pieces and fading away. No flash at end but did show some red color. Didn't hear sonic boom or see a smoke trail. Entry point must have been just south of my location almost straight up.
