Name | Perry B |
Experience Level | 3/5 |
Remarks | I was not sure whether or not I should report this event as what I witnessed may not fit the bill of what we know as a fireball. I will leave that determination up to you if there were any other witnesses that can quantify the info I provided. I briefly searched online for a site to report a "meteoroid" but I was not able to find one right away; however, this site kept coming up, so I decided 'what the hell, it is either something or it is nothing! Can't hurt to leave some information!' I hope I haven't wasted anybody's time. Thank you. Perry Cheers, |
