Observer
Name Lorraine M
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks My husband and I both saw a bright blue green ball of light, with a tail of light behind it, while outside in the spa. There was light cloud and we picked it up slightly South but almost directly above us as the object fell to the West we had a clear view until it went behind the roofline of the house next door. It lasted 2 to 3 seconds.
