Observer
Name Julianna J
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I was driving at the time on I5 south through Ferndale, WA I did my best to give location, but it came from the SW towards lummi island, was fairly vertical in its descent (not much of an arc) from my perspective. The terminal flash was quite bright, I noticed it becuase of the greenish hue before it flashed out.
