Reports Report 2397c (Event 2397-2017)

Observer
Name Lynn W
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks The fireball first appeared about 1.5 to 2 degrees up and to the left of Antares on the line connecting Antares with Saturn. The downward angle of travel was slightly steeper than this line. Due to trees and a hill I could only see the meteor for about 3 or 4 degrees along its path. I started counting as soon as I saw the fireball and got to 3 just as it disappeared from my view.
