Reports Report 312dj (Event 312-2014)

Observer
Name Jessica A
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks It was bright flash of light when it first appeared; it was very large fireball with a fire-tail. I honestly, I waited to see if it was an airplane that exploded in the air and a was crashing. I have never seen anything like it. But, after further thought I decided a plane could never be that large.
