| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | We saw this driving south on a highway (address indicated earlier), it was very dramatic and unlike any other meteors we’ve ever seen, very large and bright, lasting far longer than we expected and then quickly faded/disappeared from view—took note of time and location, but we were traveling at highway speed—overall very memorable |
