Reports Report 4580b (Event 4580-2024)

Observer
Name Stacey H
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I've seen one other fireball in my life. This one was partial viewing because of the houses, but I've never seen one that cast such a bright flash of light. In the still pic, the top one is of a still shot of one of my security cams, the bottom is exactly the same camera shot, just right when the bright flash happened. And the sound was deafening. I was out side unloading my trunk when it happened.
