Reports Report 2547i (Event 2547-2024)

Observer
Name Ashley F
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I have never seen anything like what I saw last night! The timing of the sighting is questionable. Between 10:35 and 10:50. I attempted to call a news station within 10 min of the sighting and that call was at 10:51pm. The fireball was so low that it could have hit a plane landing at the airport next to where I saw it. It was huge with an enormous bright green tail! It was magnificent and so beautiful! Almost magical! I hope somebody was able to get a picture or two.
