| Name | Al B |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | At the time, it looked more like a firework than a meteor, only after reading about it did I realize that I had in fact seen the meteor. I did not note the specific time, but culled it from a previous report (my memory is from approximately that time period) |
