Observer
Name Tahirah C
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks From my view it was a nice size and fast... I texted my children to say that I'd either saw a meteor or falling angel... Color and size changed/ intensed as it fell. It was too wide colorful and pronounced for a shooting star. If cameras in the areas are checked... plz start at about 11:55p - 12:07a. I was driving..saw it..and taken bk .. had to process what I possible saw And texted the kids at 12:07a. It was a beautiful sight! Hope this helps get it documented...
