| Name | Jim C |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | My home and property's northern and eastern boundaries are aligned with the cardinal points, I have lived here 35 years, so I have a very good sense of what direction I observed the meteor. Also, I know that it wasn't close, but it appeared to be close. |
