| Name | Mike L |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I was observing from a dark rural area, facing northwest when the sky lit up very green.... I turned to the northeast and saw the meteor streaking through Perseus from the general direction of southern Pegasus. The green color was so very obvious! Though I saw no fragments, the meteor flickered three to five times along its path before "burning out" behind the tops of nearby trees. The sky was very clear; temperature was in the mid-50s. |
