| Name | Heather F |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | I was walking two dogs (facing/walking East) when I saw what looked like a giant shooting star but it was brighter with blue/green tint, quick few sec flash. I actually took a screenshot of my phone so I knew what time it happened (10:42 pm ET), I couldn't find any other reports but if it was a fireball, it was very cool! :) |
