Reports Report 4290wl (Event 4290-2022)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Kristi F |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | Just a note that my video only shows the time, the flash and you can see the reflection in the suv’s grille of it going by. And that camera was facing the opposite of where i was (this was in the front of the house and i was on the porch in the back of the house). Also, when I first spotted it- it was so bright that I thought it was a search light coming off of a helicopter or from police spotlights . I was looking down at my phone and it was blinding when I looked up. |
