Observer
Name Kim M
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I have never seen this during the day time but I did read that the meteor close to earth is breaking up so I assumed it was related. I was actually in the middle of the lake paddle boarding when I saw it. My friend also saw the bright flash at the end
