| Observer | |

| Name | Chris D |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | The meteor looked like a bright skyrocket across the sky. It appeared about a third of the way up the sky, and then streaked across a good portion (about a third) of the sky lasting three to four seconds before disappearing. As it disappeared, it appeared to fragment. The time I reported seeing it is approximate as I remained outside for at least half an hour longer. |
