Reports Report 1362dg (Event 1362-2017)

Observer
Name Nate G
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks Saw with 2 other people we were all shocked. Was really bright and green and seemed to have a glowing intensity to it and I remember thinking it looked as if it was firey in some way vaguely. It looked very close to this video but less intense and probably a little farther away https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=xJ74QUQT8BE&ebc=ANyPxKqjrMo9GX0B9BFoZs0isM-XZpBOv7_hYngvTCYB4wOguiAFoIXX4a0R09T95G4AThhZsRkgL6q0Nw4Fr0stFwkCbjRTZg&time_continue=9
