NameMara W
Experience Level2/5
RemarksI was driving, approaching an intersection where I had to turn right: Moving slowly towards red light. The fireball was directly in front of me, moved from left (west) to right (east), was very large and bright and had a tail on it. I didn’t see where it ended as I made the right turn but it was still moving and falling as I turned and my view was then blocked by tree line.
