| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | It was in my peripheral vision when it first appeared to me. The initial flash was so bright it was like a car’s headlight in close proximity. The green fireball seemed to be surrounded by bright gold, with a glittering gold tail. I was standing next to a steep hillside to my east,northeast so I did not get to see it go all the way to the horizon. |
