Reports Report 3029ab (Event 3029-2019)

Observer
Name Christy H
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks My 12yo daughter and her friends were camping in our backyard when they saw the meteor. They started yelling at approximately 11:30pm and I ran outside to see what was the cause. I personally did not see this. I am reporting this because I saw the other reports on the news, but didn’t see a report from our area. Thank you!
