Reports Report 1497h (Event 1497-2012)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Peter R |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | We were driving, so the beginning might have been limited by the top of the windshield. Very visible through light clouds that might have hidden a tail. Total light might be equal to a quarter moon. It started high in the sky and, we think, a little east of south. Ended further to the east and lower in the sky, but well above the horizon. Seemed to just turn off. |
