Reports Report 5266b (Event 5266-2024)

Observer
Name Eugene S
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks Driving northbound on highway 99, just passed the exit for 18th street in Kingsburg, CA. From just above me (top of windshield) bright green fireball, going almost in line with the direction of the freeway but a little to the right, and disappearing when it was still pretty high above the horizon (about 75% down the windshield). The time and location I reported are exact for sure, I took a quick note immediately after.
