Reports Report 6646e (Event 6646-2022)

Observer
Name Sandy F
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks It looked like it dropped into my friends back yard, beautiful arc down to the trees. I didn’t notice any sound but just two blocks from the lake and wave’s crashing can be quite loud. Lmk if you think I should go look for meteor rocks if it is an optical illusion and actually dropped fifty miles North East of me?
