| Name | Mark Z |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | At the exact moment I exited the passenger door of the car, I was clearly looking at the sky over my house roof with tree crowns in the background I saw the fireball. It was orangish colored, small (not large), made no sound at all, was angled slightly as it descended, was descending at a extremely rapid velocity, there was no smoke trail, after it disappeared there was no glowing train left in the sky, and it lasted 1 to 1.5 seconds. The area where the fireball was headed was more than likely remote, covered with a 4"- 5" layer of frozen snow, and probably heavily wooded. |
