| Name | Rayna G |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I’ve only seen two other fireballs in my life, and this was SO much brighter than the others! We were on the lake looking for shooting stars and had seen a few — then this happened and it was so startling... blindingly bright, absolutely stunning. It was directly in front of us. We probably woke the neighbors with our hollering! |
