This report has been linked to the following event: Event 3639-2018
Observer
NameBill K
Experience Level1/5
RemarksI watched to see if there was any explosion but it went on the other side of the hills.There was another man sitting next to me and when I asked if he saw it, he said, "Yeah, I saw it, that was weird."I was at a men's invitational BBQ so I don't know the name of the other witness or I would tell him about this site so he could add his perspective.I did not look at my watch for the precise time so the reported time is approximate but fairly accurate based on other scheduled events this evening.
