Name
Marisue M
Experience Level
1/5
Remarks
This was right outside my second level living room windows about 25 fwet - NOT in the sky; did not feel fear only massive surprise but quickly disappeared. Cannot seem to find any literature for a fire ball so close; thought latter it may be a shredded part of a fire ball?
