Name | Downs K |
Experience Level | 3/5 |
Remarks | Viewed lying down through large, south facing window. Bright, bluish white meteor, from straight above. Appeared ESE or SSE and time (10:40pm pst) is approximate. Looked as if it impacted our farmland but the termination was obscured by 30'+ treeline in my field of vision. I can e-mail a pic of my perspective? Happy to do it and glad I found a place to report what I saw- it was beautiful! Thanks for the site and your time! |
