| Name | Trae S |
| Experience Level | 3/5 |
| Remarks | I was sitting in my mothers family room, watching the morning news. I was facing EAST (New Jersey) when a GIANT WHITE BALL OF LIGHT WITH ONLY THE SLIGHTEST TAIL could be seen. It first appeared in the top LEFT corner of the bay window on my RIGHT side which was facing SOUTH toward PHILADELPHIA, PA. The FIREBALL ARCHED DOWNWARD AS IT TRAVELED THROUGH THE SKY TOWARD THE HORIZON LINE OF PHILADELPHIA. IT DISAPPEARED AS IT APPROACHED THE HORIZON LINE OF PHILADELPHIA. |
