Name | Ralph B |
Experience Level | 4/5 |
Remarks | I did note that someone down the hill in Sparks/Nevada reported seeing one around the same time with similar colors, but I was in my car and did not note the time, aside from thinking that it was about 20-25 minutes prior to when I found this site. It was quite spectacular, even though I was on a lit street and the fireball went behind a few trees. |
