Observer
Name Joel B
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks My son (9) pointed it out as we were walking the dog. Watched it for a good 10 secs or so. Neighbour was also there and we were all really excited! It then disappeared. We saw a random tiny cloud and my son said he saw it explode before the cloud was there, but I didnt so didnt record it on this form. Took my phone out to record but it glitched as couldnt focus so didnt capture it.
