I estimate that I missed the first 10° of burn as it rose to noticeable mag. The ambient light probably causes an underestimation of brightness. I recall noticing some reddish fringe to the green/yellow portions.

Remarks
I didn't see the complete burn. There were a couple of minor increases in brightness and then about 6 fragments during the last 5° of burn. The fragments covered one or two degrees before fading.
