Reports Report 1936ai (Event 1936-2014)

Observer
Name Crawford A
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks This fireball was pretty big. I looked at the streetlight across the street afterward and it was almost as big as that. I didn't get to see what it did once it came closer to the ground because there was a building blocking.
