| Name | Anna M |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | The meteor i saw travelled behind a house and it was pretty low down. I couldn't grasp how far down it got and because I saw it from my bedroom window, the time frame and position I saw it shoot down from was pretty small but it was glowing bright enough for me to sit up and see it sparkle orange, yellow and white, leaving behind a white train on the way down. |

| Remarks | It was sparkling, it left behind a glowing train, I barely heard any sound because my window was closed but I saw it for burning up as it descending behind the houses blocking my view of its descent. Nobody is firing fireworks because there was no boom, but i believe the actual meteor was pointed, glowing and left behind a trail, but it travelled too quickly for me to record it. |
