Name | Sarah B |
Experience Level | 1/5 |
Remarks | My family and I witnessed what looked like a burning ember above us, for about 5-10 seconds. this was followed by an orange glowing ball that continued across the entire sky until it was out of view beyond the trees. a sight so prominent, we were positive we'd hear about it on the news. |
