Reports Report 9045el (Event 9045-2022)

Observer
Name Karen O
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I’ve never seen anything like this before. It was beautiful started out white but then flashed green and blue. It seemed quite big compared to other things I’ve seen. It was incredibly bright but didn’t hurt my eyes like the sun. I found myself yelling incoherently to my husband - but it wasn’t there long enough for him to get to a window.
