The object came down steeply, I would estimate an angle of 55 to 65 degrees.
We were traveling So. on I - 5 and were So. of Sea Tac and just No. of
Tacoma. I would say that the object may have broken up as it fell because a
smaller fireball or two seemed to come out of the main fireball. This object
appeared very large or very close. I've seen many meteorites during my 54
years and if thats what this was, it was a big one.
