Reports Report 901bl (Event 901-2016)
| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Christopher F |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I was in a car, driving north. I noticed some flickering around the car. I was leaning forward and looking up, since the flickering got my attention. I didn't see the fireball until it passed over the top of the car and into the windshield field of view. I watched it move slowly northward, varying in brightness and going from white to light-green before rapidly fading several seconds later and dropping toward the horizon. |
