Reports Report 3644a (Event 3644-2022)

Observer
Name Shannon S
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I was sitting on my patio and only saw it for about 1 second. I'm not sure how high off the horizon it started and after 1 second my view was obstructed by a large dense tree so I don't know how much longer it was visible. It was MUCH larger than any falling star or meteor I have ever seen.
