| Name | David H |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I was in the car traveling west bound on state route 70 approaching Triplet road when I saw it. Brightest/largest meteor I have ever seen, which surprised me as the sky was already getting blue. Had a bright blue color followed by some orange and yellow. Looks like it went out before getting close to the tree line, couldn't hear anything because I was in the car. Tried to find any trails in the sky after I arrived at work 5 minutes later, couldn't see anything. Very cool! |
