| Name | Michelle F |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | There were about 10 of us standing on the sidewalk in front of the local running store waiting to start a group run. Out of the 10 at least 6 of us saw all of part of the meteor moving across the sky (it was near the United Methodist Church on High St. and went pretty low in the sky. The other half had their backs to the meteor and the church. It was fairly large (compared to say a typical shooting star), lasted longer than any I've seen, and was really bright. Super cool! |
