| Name | Michael A |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | All previous meteors I've observed have been white, pinpoint, and very fast-moving. This was the first time I've ever seen such an apparently large fireball; it seemed close, with a visible "head", and demonstrably yellow. Slower moving than I would have anticipated. |
