| Observation | Yes |
| Remarks | There was a massive green flash, possibly precluded by a bright yellow smaller trail, it was still very bright outside early into sunset. I have a picture of conditions outside from a few min before. I was driving, and out of nowhere a massive green fireball appeared. It was bright enough to really catch my attention in the middle of the day. Maybe the brightest thing I have seen in the sky in the middle of the day besides the sun. Brighter than a firework would be during the day. Then it faded to oranges and yellows and was over within probably 1.3 seconds. |
