| Observer | |

| Name | William J |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I saw another one a couple of months ago, high in the southern sky in the same town, I\'d say about 80* latitude. I\'m guessing after 10pm, but before 4am. It was completely cloudy that night. The fireball had the same green glow and was so bright, I could see it and the tail thru the cloud cover. It lasted a few seconds. |
