Reports Report 2908aby (Event 2908-2014)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Kelly C |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | The angle of the descent was quite steep, as I remember it. It came down toward some foreground power lines and we almost thought it was an arc flash at that point, but we never heard any sound and so it must have been farther away. The time is approximate, but it was fully dark. |
