| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | This was observed by a Wyze door camera. The fireball was not observed directly, only the flash. It clearly was fast and lit the sky behind the houses to the north before lighting the snow in front of our house - so it was traveling roughly N to S somewhat east of overhead. There should be plenty of reports coming in for this one, so this report is just supporting info. |
