Dean S
Experience Level
3/5
Remarks
Very large blue-green meteor with a short tail much, much brighter than the dawn sky above the mountains. Noticeably slower than most other typical night-time meteors I have observed. It followed a low arc above the mountains south of my position from SSE to ESE.
