Remarks | My 16 year old son is the one who spotted it. My husband and I turned our heads immediately to that direction and saw it. It was bright green with a trail. It almost resembled a firework. From the distance, it seemed as though it hit the ground. We were in traffic and thought, let's go see. But then we realized it must have been a meteor... It seemed close as though it was going to hit the ground. |
