Duration: 5 minutes
No of observers: 2

Location: Monaca, PA, USA

Shape: Fireball

At approximately 9:45 PM on 7/24/2013, I came outside to walk my dog. I looked up into a clear sky and saw through the trees what looked like an orange fire ball.

I walked toward it and thought it was a plane on fire. It looked to be about 10,000 feet in the air heading south toward the Pittsburgh International Airport.

I ran in the house and yelled to my husband to come out and see this and that I thought a plane was on fire.

By the time he got outside, it was higher in the sky and looked like a orange glowing ball.

We watched it drift southward until it finally disappeared in the sky.
