Reports Report 1237e (Event 1237-2019)

Observer
Name Cassandra C
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I was on my back porch looking up towards the top of the mountain we live on the side of. I only saw it for a second before it disappeared behind the trees and out of my feild of vision. It was very bright, white with a hint of light blue. Almost teardrop shaped and from my perspective, it was a little smaller than a dime. (Obviously it was bigger than that) The birds were going nuts before I saw it and were noisy for a little bit afterward. That was weird to me because it was so late at night which is why I looked up and happened to get lucky and see whatever this was. It seemed so close I thought it crashed into our mountain, but I didn't hear it do so. It appears to just drop straight down.
