Observer
Name
Joseph P
Experience Level
1/5
Remarks
I was driving West and observed an object moving incredibly quickly above the horizon heading East. I was able to see it glowing as it appeared through breaks in the clouds observable to the North. Way too fast to be an aircraft and relatively large looking ball of light.
