| Name | Margaret T |
| Experience Level | 2/5 |
| Remarks | There was a trail as bright as the fireball, while it was moving, but no trail left after it disappeared. The trail length was short, compact or narrow, and solid, i.e., not sparkly. Edit, 03/06/15: Was driving. First angle of observation is based on first appearing from behind a sign. Very obvious, despite business area with many lights.. |
