Reports Report 3032id (Event 3032-2014)

Observer
Name Laura K
Experience Level 1/5
Remarks I was directly east of DFW International Airport. The fireball was seen southwest of my location and appeared to be going from south to north and in line with flight patterns of planes approaching for landing at the airport. At first I thought a plane had exploded, but the bright bluegreen light burned out quickly and before it would have hit the ground. I decided it must have been a meteor.
