Observer Name Cathy N Experience Level 1/5 Remarks It was very unusual seeing this during the day. Looked like fireworks that just blew up instead of exploding like it should. I did see a night time event back in the winter of 2017 about 8 pm in the northeastern sky. Very bright and a longer trail.
