Reports Report 2037a (Event 2037-2014)

Observer
Name Tom W
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks The sky was foggy, and the glow was very clear through the fog. The visual diameter of the fireball appeared much wider than any other meteor I've seen, even allowing for the dispersal effect of the fog. Startlingly large! I was taking out the garbage, and it surprised me.
