| Name | Veronica S |
| Experience Level | 1/5 |
| Remarks | I was in my house, a bright light caught my eye and I turned to my window.. It was so bright and fiery looking.. Greens.. I feel like it went longer but it went out of my view.. I looked online with our local site.. Nothing mentioned! I thought it was odd, as it was so bright.. Cruising along.. There's no way I was the only one who saw it. There was a helicopter flying by right after and planes in the sky.. Must have been quite a show from up there! |
