| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Erin H |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | Last report didn't register all of the info so trying again. The security camera was in night mode and had infrared lights lighting up the immediate ground and side of the building. The neighbor's house lights can be seen on the left center of the screen. You can't see it in the video but the meteor had trailing sparkles that disappeared fairly quickly, and the whole thing appeared green. There were moments of brighter flashes as it streaked across the sky, it wasn't an even burn. |
