| Name | James B |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | Sort of west to northeast from my vantage point. Had stepped outside, was watching a high flying plane at first thought a satellite. Meteor was visible long enough I'd thought of getting my camera, but by the time I'd thought that it was gone. Went sort of toward Greenville (or way north of it) from here. |
