| Remarks | I was driving westbound on K-96 at 5:21am 1/7/19, about 1/2 mile East of mm171 and Intersection of N215th Street W, I saw this brief fireball no more than a couple hundred feet in the air to the SSW. It looked like a firework, and that it was going to hit the ground when it flashed and went out right before it appeared to hit land. I swear it looked like it landed in the field just sound of K96. Very similar description to others in Oklahoma, only my view was to the south towards OK. |
