Reports Report 1392d (Event 1392-2013)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | McCarthy C |
| Experience Level | 5/5 |
| Remarks | Seen mostly due East down a street. Hence views when first appeared and last seen were obscured by buildings. As it streaked, to get a better view I ran from the N. sidewalk out into the street. Hence the meteor was moving from SW to NE. Perhaps the 8th brightest meteor I've seen in my life. May not qualify as a "fireball" however was seen through patchy cloud/fog, hence its true brightness was obscured to some extent. |
