Observer

Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I was walking my dog, it was cloudy out... white puffy clouds in the direction that I saw the flash of light from. I just happened to look up when I saw the streak of light fall from the sky. I didn't know what it was, and thought it looked strange. I stopped and stood there for a second.... I am not sure of the exact time, but, I was wearing a Fitbit, and it looked back in my records for the walk that day.... I'm thinking it was between 4:15 and 4:30 that I saw it. I saw it fall in front of a white puffy cloud, and remember thinking how frigging bright this thing was falling from the sky... I told my husband about it in the morning, then, I saw the reports and thought this is probably what I saw, but, was thinking that it was something that fell off of what hit in Canada, because it went from the sky down . I couldn't say how far away it was from me. hope this helps..... It was very cool to see, and it caused wonderment in me when I did see it.
