Observer
Name Grumpy Gramps E
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks We had adjusted the security camera to face the sky trying to catch a lightning show and hopefully some interesting flying objects about 30 minutes prior to the fireball, my wife just happened to look up at the monitor screen at the right time and saw a flash so as we played it back saw this.
