Name | CYNTHIA E |
Experience Level | 1/5 |
Remarks | I had gone to bed and awakened around 2:30 a.m. on 3/24/11. I got up and got a drink of water, got back in bed with my head just below the window and closed my eyes. I saw a bright light and opened my eyes to see what it was, and saw the very vivid white-gold fireball arching in the night sky. As it moved it seemed greenish, and it disappeared almost immediately. Extremely bright! |
