Reports Report 5598ay (Event 5598-2023)

Observer
Name Jennifer D
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks The initial flash that caught my attention, was so super bright and seemed very large. It was super bright green and at the base of the trail was red. Trail was very faint and quickly faded. I’ve never seen anything like it until I did a quick search and found the pictures on your site. That’s exactly what I seen! It happened too quick for me to get a picture or video.
