Reports Report 1343i (Event 1343-2012)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Duane J |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I was in my car at the time, and noticed the meteor going almost straight down. It disappeared behind a tree line, so I can\'t confirm there was an impact. Due to the large size of the fireball (about the size of a nearby street light but the object was about 5-10 Km away), I would assume there was one. |
