| Name | Blaine W |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I was in a vehicle being driven on the highway after leaving the Chevron across from the Buc-ee's in Leeds, Alabama on the way to Trussville when I saw the shooting star above the tree line. I do not know my exact location on the highway when I saw it. It was heading downward from my perspective though I am unsure of the exact degree it was traveling. My mother had also seen a shooting star near the Aldi in Trussville a Wednesday an earlier month, though I did not see this one. |
