Observer
NameMichelle R
Experience Level3/5
RemarksWhile driving southbound on the highway I couldn't believe how bright and beautiful the quick image flashed and fizzled out of the sky. It just seemed so low so I was confused as to what it was until I searched the web to see what it was. After viewing videos of fireballs, I can now say confidentially it was 100% a fireball for sure!
