| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | Although I did not see the fire ball, I heard a loud explosion, which also shook the house. I stepped out see to a smoke trail that was slowly dissipating, and photographed it (uploaded the image to this report) It was heard and felt across town and many people also saw the flash. A video was captured of the flash by someone, as well which can be seen here https://www.facebook.com/1568691436/posts/10222800778879237/? |
