| Remarks | It was a bright green & blue meteor that lit up the nearby clouds as it flew over head, in a ENE direction, just before 12:30 am. It seemed surprisingly low since the clouds lit up green as it passed by, however there was no audible sound. It was genuinely the brightest & most colorful meteor I've ever actually seen. |
