Reports Report 1786ku (Event 1786-2021)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Brandon T |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | The video doesn’t catch the actual fireball I witnessed, just the reflection of the fireball on my truck window about a quarter second after I walk by the passenger side. Fireball appeared to be in a south/ southwest direction moving to the northwest. I would have submitted this report earlier but had no idea this organization existed. If possible, I would like to know if other people witnessed the same thing. |
