Reports Report 3238e (Event 3238-2014)

Observer
Name Lydia T
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks Time is approximate as I was driving; I am also not positive about the direction I was facing. I thought at first it was a plane going down but it was too small. I thought about it more and then started wondering if I had seen a meteor. Curious!
