Reports Report 3638oi (Event 3638-2014)

| Name | M R |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | Was fast moving, bright green, caught my eye as I was driving on I-495 going north (and almost directly parallel to the Delaware River nearby) enough to be curious to look in today's news online to see if any reported meteors, etc., which is something I've never done before. At first I thought maybe a plane flowing low with bright light, but was greenish light, and moved too fast to seemingly be a plane. |
