| Name | John N |
| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | Shortly before I lost sight on the horizon, the meteor blinked in and out as it passed through a lone cloud low to the horizon. It was quite distinct and slightly longer than one would expect, and I feel there is a good chance that the angle of descent may have allowed for fragments, or a larger piece may have struck east of Hagersville. (FYI I previously was a member of AAVSO and contributed variable star observations. I was on my way home from work, dark skies, no distractions. It was marvellous to witness.) |
