| Name | Candice A |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | It happened so quickly, I just happened to look up before getting in the car, and saw what looked like a streak of fire flying across the sky. Maybe a second or two and saw what looked like a “flicker” like it went out for a millisecond, then it was back burning. Then it was gone. The area where I was when I saw it happens to be very dark at night, so everything in the sky is much more visible. |
