| Name | paul m |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | The time is approximate: ~30min. Sorry. Near full moon (3:17p) imparts doubt of reporting brightness. Thank you for your work. A cpl yrs ago, your site,w/ 8 or 10 reports, verified the trajectory of a long, persistant fireball that disappeared over my near horizon, Mt. Tallac. Appearing as if it may have landed between it and San Francisco. It actually went farther out to sea , but on that lay. |
