Remarks | First sighting for me, glad other\'s seen it as well. Heavy cloud cover over Danbury that night, which explained how this fireball could appear out of no where and disappear in seconds, but what a sight. Sent an email to our local weatherman, then checked the web and found this sight on google. Thrilled that I can file this report and add to the knowledge about this amazing event. |
