| Observer | |
|---|---|
| Name | Jim P |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I initially thought it was an aircraft in a steep, fast, unrecoverable dive; then when I didn't see any smoke on the horizon, I thought maybe it was just a reflection of the sun through the windshield of my vehicle. Didn't know it was a meteor until this morning when I read the web news. |
