Reports Report 2530aj (Event 2530-2014)

Observer
Name Donald M
Experience Level 2/5
Remarks It seemed very low to the ground, there was lots of cloud cover so it's possible I saw it through an opening in the clouds and then it disappeared behind them. I was driving on Fries Mill road heading south when just by chance I looked up and saw the bright fire ball for 1-2 seconds. I immediately noted the time and location. It also seemed pretty small.
