| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Peter A |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | This was clearly after sunrise. The fireball appeared to move from west by south to east by north, so it looked like it was crossing the sky ever closer to my latitude as it continued. It was bright enough to follow over what I figured was the ocean. I could not tell if it broke up, faded out, etc or where because it was far enough east that my vision became obscured by sunlight. |
