Reports Report 8218a (Event 8218-2020)
| Observer | |

| Name | Craig W |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | At first thought it was a firework, but hearing no report and it was very high and going the wrong direction to be a firework I realized it was a fireball. My brother is in the video captured by my security camera. He was just leaving my house when we saw the fireball. He also saw it. It was a brilliant green, and was possibly fragmenting, but I cannot attest to that. |
