| Name | Keith S |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | The brightest meteor I have ever seen, even against a backdrop of highway and city lights. It had a pronounced counterclockwise arc with its descent from my perspective. It seemed quite distant. I was driving in a car with windows closed, so I heard no noise. It descended slightly right of center from my perspective. It was white with a slightly bluish tint. |
