| Name | Lisa K |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I didn’t see the flash go all the way to the horizon, because my house was in the way. I walked around the house to see if I could see anything else, but I didn’t see anything else. There was no sound. It was night like a firework, but had the appearance of a super close meteor. It appeared remarkably close, significantly closer than any meteor I’ve ever seen. I have a time stamped message I send to my friend at 1:21am about it, so I guessed it happened about two minutes prior, because I sent it after I went in the house. |
