| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | First time I ever saw this event. Very wide but very short path. It looks like a white paint was brushed across the sky real quick, just under one second. The beginning and end had fewer white lines and the middle had a lot more, the beginning and ends look like a paintbrush that was starting to run dry. Must have been a pretty darn large meteorite |
