| Name | Paul B |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | The time is questionable. I could be off by 30 minutes in either direction. I’ve seen meteor showers, but nothing like this! Your description of it led me to believe a fireball is what I saw. I’ve been lookimg all day for reports of comets or meteors etc, and was confused why there was no reports! |
