Reports Report 4424iq (Event 4424-2022)

Observer
Name Ann v
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I was inside so I can't attest to sound. It happened very quickly and shockingly when I was on the phone looking outside. There are trees behind the houses in front of me (150 ft away) so it disappeared behind them. It was so wide and low, it seems like it should have hit the Earth.
