| Name | Jill R |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | It was a very bright, white ball of light with an arced tail, moving/falling quite quickly. Very pretty! It suddenly appeared in front of me in the northwest sky as I drove to work in the early morning. It appeared so clearly, and so low in the sky that I thought it might be a flare, and I actually thought it went down approx. 1-3km away. I watched it out of my windshield, then out my driver's window as I continued along the road. |
