Reports Report 2187ii (Event 2187-2014)

Observer
Name Michele N
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks It was too big and high to be fireworks, there was no light explosion like if it had been fireworks, but that's the first thing came to mind. I'm not exactly sure where I was, but it was straight ahead of me. So all those angles may be way off, depends on how the Garden State Parkway was turning. It seemed to be due northwest, in the general direction I was going.
