Reports Report 7245c (Event 7245-2024)

Observer
Name Rachel W
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks Our backs were turned to the flash so we did not see the fireball. Instead we witnessed the sky light up the night in green, then flashed even brighter before dimming away. We did not even realize what had happened soon enough to turn. However the light started high above us and seemed to diminish at the tree line.
