Reports Report 1677bs (Event 1677-2012)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Christy C |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | This was VERY cool! It seemed so close! It was so bright! It was close to the ground, enough for buildings and trees to get in the way of my vision. I looked over to find fire or smoke on the ground, that is how close it was to the ground when it was so bright! I wanted to get off the highway and find it but didn\'t know even where to begin. Also, I was running a little behind. I hope you get more reports! I would love to hear about them! |
