| Name | Caroline C |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | It came from a general westward direction and went toward the sunrise so it was more visible at the beginning because of the darker sky, but I could still make it out even as it went into the brighter light of the sunrise. I was standing on the roof of a parking garage, so I had unobstructed view for a great distance in both directions. |
