| Remarks | First let me mention that I never saw a thing. But I heard so very much. Not only me but two of my cats as well. I and my cats heard something hit my house on the south facing side. Just as that Registered in my head I noticed my two cats, who were laying on my legs for warmth, I noticed them look straight up at the ceiling. Which I've never seen them do before. Just as I noticed that is when I heard what I could only, at the time, describe as a micro burst of strong wind. (It was a very calm night with light mist and zero wind). Just as that happened I heard something hitting the roof of my house at the north side. Exactly like the first sound I heard when something hit the south facing side of my house. So this thing was traveling south to north. |

|---|---|
| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | About ten seconds later I heard a very large boom. I have a witness who lives the next street over and he heard this boom as well. If you look at the Google maps you will see this thing crashed into lake Erie. I'm sure if you look back on radar from that night you will be able to see this thing. |
