Reports Report 2240f (Event 2240-2016)

| Name | April W |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I did not actually see what I believe must have been a fireball, I was sitting on the front porch watching a very loud movie on my phone when a very bright light cast a moving shadow across the porch, and my legs. There was no traffic, no other people besides myself, and I did not see any air traffic (and it moved way faster than a plane) I have no other plausible theory as to what it could have been. It either moved from south-ish to north-ish, or vice versa. I believe it must have been very high up off the horizon , maybe even directly overhead. I did observe what could have been a smoke trail in the north-east, after the flash of light. I am extremely interested in knowing if anyone else saw this. |
