| Name | Tarra Z |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | My son and I were in the car together, right after I said OMG did you see that, he said he saw a bright explosion type light but his head was buried in his phone, just at that moment we had gone under an over pass and I was sure he would see it on the other side since it was so big and bright for so long but it went out before we got to the other side. There was not much of an arch from my point of view it almost can straight down. I have seen many shooting stars that shot across the sky but nothing like this. |
