Reports Report 4846l (Event 4846-2019)

Observer
Name JAMES S
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I was driving on the highway approaching White Post, VA with no oncoming traffic. My view was thru my windshield and probably encompassed the middle portion of the windshield from beginning to end of the event. It did seem to me that there was a "pulse" in the middle of the path, i.e. a brightening, b4 the fireball continued. The path itself was continuous. The event ended above the horizon with no additional or final pulse. It simply ended. I would rate my experience between #3 and #4.
