Reports Report 1882fd (Event 1882-2016)

Observer
Name Donald B
Experience Level 3/5
Remarks I was lying in bed fully awake when I thought a flash light was turned on through my bedroom patio window. I was facing north and the light was due west. When I turned my head, the bright line of light was wide and going from east to west and bright orange. I had a very small angle of view as I am near Crosby peak to my west. From what I saw, it was the brightest in my life time.
