Reports Report 2024a (Event 2024-2022)

Observer
Name Debbie W
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I was driving in my car and it went overhead from left to right over Long Pond Road. There weren't any streetlights nearby as it's a rural road. It was quite bright and looked very low. I couldn't see any fragmentation as it was too dark and there were trees/woods around to the right where any debris may have come down.
