| Name | Christopher L |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I have witnessed many meteor showers, often setting my alarm to view during the early morning hours. This evening while walking my dog at 5:24 pm est (I know exact time bc I had sent a text to my girlfriend immediately saying I had just saw a fireball), I saw a bright streak that turned very bright and larger then appear to get smaller before disappearing. |
