|---|---|
| Name | Chris B |
| Experience Level | 4/5 |
| Remarks | My GPS watch should be accurate but it took me a few seconds to think to check the time, I would estimate 19:35:15. I could only estimate it was travelling West, maybe South-West but I feel confident this may have resulted in meteorites not very far from the observation point. |

| Remarks | After the initial long slow bright fizzle, it faded but then suddenly got quite bright in a few spots, then was bright and fizzled for another ~40% further. Of the dozens of fireballs I have seen over the years this appeared by far the slowest and lowest altitude by quite a margin. |
