| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | It seemed very close to us, not up in the sky, just above a near by tree. It seems unreal, and very surreal. It felt like it wasn’t much more than 10 meters away. Not sure anyone believes us, but I really can’t see what else it could have been. The reason we couldn’t see it anymore was it burnt out. My daughter saw it 1st, she thinks about 5seconds before I saw it. I’ve tried looking around the park in case there are any unusual stones, but couldn’t see any, although long, and cut grass. We didn’t hear or see anything drop maybe it just turned to dust. It was nearly dark, and not visible after it burnt out! Another local has reported that they also feel they saw a meteor, but I don’t know anything about their sighting. |
